The Walls of Revellín are the remains of the fortifications that he/she had the city of Logroño, of those that the door is conserved that he/she gives to the west.This is the denomination that he/she appears in old documents when making reference to the current Door of Revellín. It is from a later work to the wall, being finished toward 1524, surely built at the same time that the bridges that cross the moat, up to now hidden. On the door you can contemplate Carlos' bicephalous eagle V next to two logroño shields with the three lis flowers granted by the king to the city in 1523, for the defense of the blockade of the troops French two years before.
