Irun, Administrative municipality in Bidasoaldea region, Gipuzkoa, Spain
Irun extends along the Bidasoa River at the French border, functioning as a vital transportation center between Spain and France through its railway station.
The area of Irun originated from the Roman settlement of Oiasso, developing into a formal municipality on February 28, 1776 within the Basque region.
The Alarde de San Marcial parade takes place on June 30, commemorating a military event with participants dressed in traditional uniforms marching through streets.
The municipal government offices operate from San Juan Arria Plaza 1, offering administrative services and information through their website www.irun.org.
The railway station contains both Spanish and French gauge tracks, requiring trains to switch between different rail systems at this border point.
