XIII the amplification of the previous one began giving place to Reyes' Palacio of Navarrese. Although almost all they call it "castle", the correct thing is to refer to him as "palace", since it is about a construction with character courtier, where the residential aspects prevailed on the military (defense) ones. One of their main charms is the apparent disorder of their design. This is due to that their construction was never confronted as a group" project, being due the final result to the continuous amplification works and reformations that were happened during centuries, although most of the works was carried out among final of s. XIV and principles of s. XV. The then king of Navarrese, Carlos III "The Nobleman", decided to transform the existent palace into real permanent headquarters and to endow it of the whole ornament characteristic of these. picture |
