    Tips

    The settlement of the hill of Haro probably dates back to the time of the Celtiberian Beroni tribe. No Roman finds were made, but the place name Castrum Bilibium is associated with Haro. Around the year 1093, King Alfonso VI enfeoffed. of León and Castile gave his loyal comrade-in-arms Diego López the manorial rule (señorio) over the strategically important place and its surroundings. His successors managed to expand their power over an ever-increasing area. In 1430, King John II of Castile named Don Pedro Fernández de Velasco Count of Haro in gratitude for services rendered against John II of Aragon. The city experienced its heyday in the 16th and 17th centuries. After all manorial rule was abolished in 1811 and 1820, the area belonged to the Castilian province of Burgos and only became part of the newly created province of Logroño in 1833, from which the La Rioja region emerged in 1982 (Wikipedia).

    There are a number of bodegas in and around Haro where you can find out more about the wines and of course taste them!

      Haro is the wine-growing center of the Rioja Alta
      The only thing that is attractive is the quiet old town, located on a hill above the central Plaza de la Paz. In June there is the “Batalla del Vino” wine battle.
      The church Iglesia Santo Tomas is worth seeing. Between the 15th and 17th centuries. Built, it shows different architectural styles from Gothic to Baroque. The Plateresque portal is particularly impressive.
