History

Ciboure and the neighbouring commune of Saint-Jean-de-Luz were suspected of "incivility" during the French Revolution and, during the Reign of Terror, were merged together under the name Chauvin-Dragon. The name was derived from a revolutionary soldier named Chauvin who, as a member of a dragoon unit, died in the region in early 1793. Although the name was in official use from 1793-1795, it was never used by the inhabitants of the communes and the two were officially separated in 1800.[8]

The Notre-Dame de Bordagain was the only church in Ciboure from its construction in the 12th century through 1575. A tower was added in the 14th century for military purposes. During the Revolution, the church and tower fell into disrepair. The building was restored and turned into a tea house in 1911 by an architect from Saint-Jean-de-Luz. The business performed poorly and a proposal was made to turn it into a casino, which fell through. The church and tower were declared a historical monument in 1987 and were restored in 2010.[9][10]
