# Altza station

Altza is a railway station in San Sebastián, Basque Country, Spain. It is owned by Euskal Trenbide Sarea and operated by Euskotren. It lies on a branch of the San Sebastián-Hendaye railway, popularly known as Topo.

## History

The station opened in September 2016, together with the tunnel that connects it with Herrera. As the opening happened during a strike, the official inauguration took place a month later on 9 October.

The station opened as a branch of the mainline, but it was planned as the first station of a new alignment between Herrera and Galtzaraborda. Works on the extension to Galtzaraborda, which will give the station continuity eastwards, started in early 2022.

## Services

The station is served by Euskotren Trena line E5. It runs every 15 minutes on weekdays and weekend afternoons, and every 30 minutes on weekend mornings.
