The Cathedral of St Mary the Royal The baroque facade is a later addition to a fine 15th century gothic church. The present building is the third cathedral on this site; the first was destroyed in warfare in 924. |
|
Over the altar is a relic from an earlier building on this site; a silver gilded wooden carving of Royal St Mary. |

Altarpiece of the Chaplains of St Barbara |
Sepulchre of Charles III of Navarre and his wife. |
One of the finest features is the 13th-century cloister. The gothic windows visible here have a feel of English decorated gothic, though the influence is generally credited to the French. |

The museum is full of wonderful items - we needed much more time! |

Let's head for the monastery of Leyre. |
