Alonsotegi

Alonsotegi is not referenced in any document before 1300.

Its history can be divided into four distinct periods:

Until the late 15th and early 16th centuries, Alonsotegi was part of the Arrigorriaga municipality. The San Antolín church, the oldest building in Alonsotegi, was constructed in the 15th century.

In the 16th century, Alonsotegi was established as an independent municipality and remained so until 1888. The San Bartolomé parish church was constructed in the 16th century. It split from its founding church, the Santa María Magdalena Church in Arrigorriaga, and became independent due to the distance between both locations. On October 24, 1647, both municipalities signed an agreement that determined, among many other things, the use of pastures and meadows and the political and provincial governments each municipality had to follow. On August 7, 1777, an agreement between the town Bilbao and the municipalities of Alonsotegi and Arrigorriaga was signed at the Church of San Vicente de Abando for the "recognition of a new ice house constructed by the town in the Ganekogorta mountains." By the 19th century, the impact of the Carlist Wars on Alonsotegi's coffers was obvious; much of their provisions were given to the Carlist Army, causing Alonsotegi to push for annexation by Baracaldo in 1888.

From November 13, 1888, until December 31, 1990, Alonsotegi remained annexed to the Baracaldo municipality. Schools were constructed in 1903, followed by the new San Bartolomé Church in 1904.

On January 20, 1980, the Alonsotegi bombing took place in Alonsotegi. The Grupos Armados Españoles (GAE), an armed group operating in the Basque Country in the early years of the Spanish democracy, planted a bomb in a local bar which exploded that evening killing four civilians and wounding ten.

January 1, 1991, marked a new stage for Alonsotegi. A new and distinct municipality was created, together with the Iráuregui district.
