Zusammenfassung

About 50 furnaces have been found in the Basque Coast Geopark. Some of them were reused from former iron furnaces (bloomeries) to late limekilns. These structures could be classified as “Hornos Vascos” (Basque Furnaces) defined like manual-powered, cylindrical shaft shaped, rock-hosted, giant bloomery furnaces (probably the biggest ones described in Europe). The Zelaitxueta furnace, excavated in the Basque Coast Geopark in 2014, is characterized by the largest pit ever found. This initiative is a good example of how geoparks work with the cultural implications of the geology of the territory.
