Gaztelugatxe is a tiny island on the coast of Biscay belonging to themunicipality of Bermeo. On top of the island stands a hermitage (namedGaztelugatxeko Doniene in Basque, San Juan de Gaztelugatxe inSpanish), dedicated to John the Baptist, that dates from the 10thcentury and seems to have come from the Knights Templar.

In theyear 1053 it was donated, by don Iñigo López Lord of Biscay, to themonastery of San Juan de la Peña near Jaca in Pyrenees of Huesca.
