Algorta market has a curious history dating from its construction in 1940. During the Civil War it was used as an air-raid shelter because it was one of the few concrete buildings in the town. Getxo residents took refuge in its basement every time the air-raid warning sirens sounded. It 2001, it was renovated, following the same architectural criteria (rationalist style) as before, but adapting it to the new times.
