    It is undoubtedly one of the most imposing and wonderful castles in all of Spain and one of the most luxurious in Europe. The Royal Palace was declared a National Monument in 1925 and its history dates back to the ancient court of the Kings of Navarre who built this magnificent castle in the 13th century on some Roman architectural remains.



    You can distinguish a French and Mudejar influence in its architecture and decoration, the responsibility of King Carlos III back in the 15th century who turned it into the palace that is seen today with a majestic Gothic style.



    The castle can be visited and is one of the busiest and most popular in Navarre. I suggest you check the official website to plan your visit, which can be guided, so you won't miss any detail of this dream place!

      Originally a Roman fortress in a strategic location, the fortress is both a castle and a palace, although it was originally built as a court building to fulfil a military function. Since the 13th century, the Castle of Olite has been called the Palace of the King of Navarre.
