Sasternea is a 16th century founded by the family palace Goyenetche Iturraldea of Arizkun.
The house is first mentioned in the parochial archives of 1564, which suggests that Astrearena (name at the time) could be built in the early 16th century.All indications are that the battery embrasures on the second floor as well as the bombardone found in the loft were used in the defense of Navarra against the Castillian invasion. The last battle of Basque resistance against the invader took place in 1522 in Amaiur (Maia), about 5 kilometers from Arizkun.
Today it hosts the workshop and the permanent exhibition of the artist Xabier Soubelet.
