CITADEL OF SAINT-JEAN-PIED-DE-PORT
A citadel overlooking the beautiful city of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, where we find the paved ramp, the monumental arch, the drawbridge
Built on the site of the former fortified castle of the kings of Navarre, it dominates the walled city with its superb view. Built in the 17th century during the Wars of Religion and the Franco-Spanish conflicts, it was then redesigned by Vauban, who improved the defensive system and the fortification of the entire city. Today, we find the paved ramp, the monumental arch, the drawbridge... A grandiose panorama and a fitness trail complete the journey.
