From Darkness to Fire: Mendukilo and Brun Forges

Explore the region's natural and artisanal heritage through a day that combines discovery and craftsmanship. The experience begins at the Mendukilo Cave, where a guided tour through its galleries reveals the history of Isaac Santesteban's early explorations and the cave's use by shepherds since the Iron Age. Helmets and headlamps accompany each step as you discover the vastness of the subterranean world and the richness of its historical heritage.

In the afternoon, the experience continues at Brun Forges, a traditional forge where iron has been worked since 1772. Guided by an expert craftsman, participants observe the transformation of metal through fire and hammer and can forge their own piece, taking home a tangible souvenir of the activity.

A day that combines excitement, learning, and creativity, connecting past and present through cave exploration and the tradition of ironworking.
