A beautiful, perfectly restored building. It's a shame it's private and can't be visited.

Incredibly impressive with the relatively small round arches. Like a mighty castle. They certainly had good reasons for building it like that. And it was worth it.

Castle with towers at the corners of the structure. The ancient Roman road that connected Italy to Spain passes through here. Information table on site.

The primitive Romanesque church was built dedicated to the Savior and Saint Mary. In 1098, King Alfonso VI donated land for its construction. The cathedral was consecrated in 1106 by Bishop Don Pedro Nazar. It later became a collegiate church around 1158 and finally a cathedral after 1232. Since then, it has been the seat of the bishop of Calahorra-La Calzada. Construction of the current church began in 1158, preserving much of the old structure. In the 16th century, the right part of the transept was raised to house the tomb of Saint Dominic.

A prominent example of Rioja's new wine architecture, which is generally postmodern and futuristic, is Santiago Calatrava's design for Bodegas Ysios. Built from 1998 to 2001, the architectural landmark is commonly referred to in the press as the “Cathedral of Wine” or “modern house of worship”, due to its shape, the Calatrava of the silhouette of the Cantabrian Mountains, to which the winery with its 65 hectares is located Rebland wants to have modeled it.

Super cool architecture of the very famous Bodegas "Baigorri". Most of it is underground down the hill, only the entrance is visible above as a glass cubature. Tastings, tours and lunch are offered and are highly recommended: https://bodegasbaigorri.com/en/visit-the-winery/

Spectacular on the outside (with the Palomares frame in the distance) and on the inside, with a bar that can be visited.

The Castillo fortaleza de San Vicente de la Sonsierra is an impressive medieval castle that rises above the River Ebro. It was built in the 12th century by the Kingdom of Navarre to defend its border with Castile. It was part of a defense line connecting Laguardia and Labastida, and was the largest fortress in Navarre on the Ebro. The castle has a semi-circular shape that adapts to the rock on which it stands. It consists of three walled areas: the albacar, where the houses of the old town stood, the cortijo, where the parish church, the chapel of San Juan and the cemetery are, and the castle itself, with the keep and the bell tower. The castle lost its military importance after the annexation of Navarre by Castile in 1512, and was later used as a quarry and rubbish dump. In the 20th century, people began to realize its historical and artistic value, and several restoration projects were carried out. The castle is now a monument of cultural interest and a tourist attraction

The cathedral houses a chicken coop in which a live rooster and hen live. The animals are protected as an Asset of Cultural Interest by the Government of La Rioja. The rooster and hen are replaced every two weeks and are there to commemorate the legend of the hanged man. This account that a pilgrim was hanged after being accused of robbery. When his parents went to see the body, they found that he was alive. The pilgrim told them that Santo Domingo de la Calzada had saved his life. The parents told the mayor of the city, who did not believe them and told them: "Your son is as alive as the roasted rooster and hen that I am eating." According to legend, the animals regained their feathers and came back to life at that very moment.
