The bell towers-calvary.
We can notice certain differences in the architecture of the Suletin churches and those of the rest of the Northern Basque Country. Thus, Suletin churches often have three naves and three apses, while in Laburdi they generally only have one. But what characterizes them most today are the Calvary bell towers, improperly called Trinitarian. The façade is usually crowned with a pediment cut out by a niche that houses the bells, ending in three points on each of which we find a cross, the central one higher than the others. Most of it is from the s. XVII and seems to have been conceived by the same architect. The bells, in their niches, are housed in a wooden construction closed by blind sheets. The best known of these churches is that of Gotein. The old parish church of Maulón, of which only the choir remains, San Juan de Berraute, has a bell tower-calvary. We also find them in Viodos, Idaux-Mendy, Aussurucq, Espús (classified monument)-Undurein, in the Villa Alta de Maulon and in many other parishes.
