Zabaldika - Oldest Bells in Navarre

Several villages in the valleys of Esteribar and Erro keep some of the oldest bells of Navarre. Most of them don't ring anymore. They were not mechanized in the past and parallel to the loss of inhabitants of the villages (Zabaldika has a census of 29 inhabitants today), the churches also have lost their original function. As listening to the bells (the drive is manual) and even approaching to them becomes impossible, this documentation intends to make a first approximation to these heritage. This bells installed on San Esteban church are the most antique bells of all Navarre. They were made in 1377. Campaners database file
