History

The station opened, together with the rest of the line between Amorebieta and Gernika, on 13 August 1888. The station building, which has been preserved, was designed by Pablo de Alzola and Luis de Landecho. A spur track to a nearby sawmill was added in 1946, it was removed in 1973 after being unused for several years.[2] In 2018, the station was renovated in order to improve its accessibility.[3]

Services

The station is served by Euskotren Trena line E4. It runs every 30 minutes (in each direction) during weekdays, and every hour during weekends.[4]
