Monuments

Where history is made

In Navarre’s monuments, stone, wood and iron bear the traces of different eras. From prehistoric remains to industrial buildings, the region shows how the way of living and transforming the landscape has evolved over time. Dolmens, Roman roads, ironworks, mills and traditional houses form a diverse collection that does not stand in isolation, but is integrated into valleys, hills and inhabited settlements. Each monument contributes a part of the story, allowing us to understand the region as a sum of historical layers that remain present today.
