San Ignacio de Loyola

San Ignacio de Loyola

The viewpoint with the sculpture of San Ignacio de Loyola, near of the peaks Xoxote and Erlo in massif of Izarraitz. San Ignacio is the patron saint of Gipuzkoa and Bizkaia and he was born in Azpeitia, just under this massif. He was the principal founder and first Superior General of the Society of Jesus (Compañía de Jesús or Jesuitas) and for this reason it's probably the most famous person of Basque Country out of Spain.
