Palacio de los Reyes de Navarra, Estella, Medieval palace in Estella, Spain

The palace stands at Plaza de San Martín with two main floors of ashlar masonry and a third floor constructed of brick from the 18th century.

Built in the second half of the 12th century, this Romanesque structure served multiple purposes, including a period as a prison from 1868 to 1954.

The facade displays intricate capitals with scenes from the Legend of Roland, depicting the battle between Roland and the giant Ferragut.

Since 1991, the palace houses the Gustavo de Maeztu Museum, displaying paintings and artworks from the notable Basque School artist.

The building represents one of only two surviving Romanesque civil structures in Navarre, alongside the Hórreo de Iracheta.
