    This is the entrance for pilgrims to Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port! This door represents a stage because it is the last city before switching to Spain. If you cross it, you will arrive in the heart of town, between stopover lodgings and food shops.

      Inscribed on the World Heritage List by UNESCO in 1998, Porte Saint Jacques is the historic entrance for pilgrims en route to Compostela, who coming from the Madeleine district of Saint-Jean-le-Vieux, cross Saint-Jean -Pied-de-Port in the direction of Roncesvalles. It offers a nice view of the Arradoy hill, once a stone quarry and now planted with vines under the Irouléguy appellation. A quick look at a top notch sports complex. In front of the Jai Alai, a large building below where Cesta Punta (Basque Pelota) is played, is the bas-relief of Juan de Huarte, a doctor-philosopher, precursor of vocational guidance, author of a famous book used by Montesquieu in the Spirit of Laws.

        Through this gate all pilgrims of the Way of St. James come to St. Jean PdP.
