Roland, who is commemorated here, died in 778 as part of the rear guard of Charlemagne's Frankish army. He himself was Margrave of Brittany and was the victim of a Basque revenge campaign against the Frankish conquerors who were retreating from a failed Saracen campaign. Those were complicated times, but things were not to become any less complicated in the Basque Country in the centuries that followed. An epic/song was later sung about Roland, which is part of world literature. The monument itself is simple and rough, exposed up here in the wind of the weather, and can therefore have an immediate effect, without pomp and splendor. Great! https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlacht_von_Roncesvalles

The French feeder route Via Podiensis ends in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port. The most famous Way of St. James, the Camino Francés, starts here. The suffix explains what the pilgrims can expect: Pied de Port means “at the foot of the pass”. From here, the Camino Francés leads 25 kilometers over the ridge of the Pyrenees to Roncesvalles in Spain. The pilgrims also follow in the footsteps of Charlemagne, who in 778 reached Spain over the Ibañeta Pass (Puerto de Ibañeta or Col de Roncevaux) at an altitude of 1,057 meters during his campaign. It doesn't get colder than up there at the top of the pass on the entire Way of St. James.
