The Gaztelu Town Council, a small municipality in Gipuzkoa with only 171 inhabitants, has launched a public call to find interested parties to manage its municipal bar for a monthly rent of one hundred euros.

The Gaztelu Town Council, a small municipality in Gipuzkoa with just 171 residents, has initiated a public tender to find individuals interested in operating its municipal bar. The offer sets a monthly rent of only 100 euros, aiming to ensure the continuation of this vital service within the community.
This measure, approved by the Town Council Plenary on March 17, 2026, seeks to guarantee the bar-cafeteria service in the locality, which is characterized by its rural setting and proximity to the Navarre border. The bar, as in many small towns, plays a fundamental role as a meeting point for residents.

The service contract covers the management and operation of the municipal bar, an institution that, as in many small towns, plays a fundamental role as a meeting point for residents.

According to the approved conditions, interested parties will have until May 2 to submit their bids, for which they must deposit a guarantee of 1,000 euros. Despite the challenges involved in managing an establishment in a town of just over a hundred inhabitants, the proposal offers an interesting opportunity, especially for those looking to start a business in a quiet environment. Gaztelu is located 33 kilometers from Donostia and 7 kilometers from Tolosa.
