Located in the north of the Iberian Peninsula, in the community of Navarra, Iruña, as it is also known has various remains of the different civilisations that lived there previously. Its foundations lie with the Romans in 75BC which served as a link between the Iberian peninsula and Europe. This lasted until the fifth century when it was passed into the hands of the Visigoths who only stayed for a short while due to the bad relationship had with the Basques who were consistently present in this region. It was then that the arrival of the Muslims took place until the 9th century, which, later thanks to Íñigo Arista became a Christian stronghold. Pamplona has seen various stages throughout the ages including the Black Death in the 15th century and various others. During the Spanish Civil War it also witnessed a significant transition.

  • First and Second Area: Pamplona was a city with considerable military character and walls protecting the centre. For military reasons, the construction of said walls was not allowed until the visit of King Alfonso XII who helped construct the exterior. It was then when the military agreed to the construction of the exterior that was made up of five blocks and an area near the walls where the military barracks were located. In the first area you can find the Monument to the Fueros of Navarre, the Pamplona Citadel or the Navarre Parliament. After the Second World War, the military saw that the new systems of war that were being used (plane bombings) made the walls useless and so they decided to tear down part ofthem.
