The name of the highlight and the accompanying photo don't seem to fit together, as the image shows "Monument aux Mortes," like those erected in many places to commemorate the victims of war. However, I can't find the odometer to Compostela, as suggested in the name, in the photo.

Beautiful little church in Lichos. Drinking water💦next to the church.

The beautiful, large church, restored in the early 1990s, was built in the mid-16th century. It once served as a Protestant temple until it regained its Catholic vocation in the first half of the 17th century.

An authentic Basque village, Mauléon-Licharre is considered the capital of espadrille. It is also that of the small province of the Basque Country, Soule. The heights of its old town are separated from the lower town by the course of the Saison. In this part we find the Andurain de Maytie castle.

Once again we have reached a milestone on the "Via Podiensis", our pilgrimage route to St. James (Chemin de Saint Jacques) through France; and here too, in the village of Navarrenx, our small group of pilgrims is charmed by the beautiful atmosphere of the place. But we still have to move on the next morning ... still the (comparatively short) way to Saint-Jean Pied-de-Port, and then - after crossing the Pyrenees - further on the "Camino Frances" through the north of Spain to the Tomb of the Apostle in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia.

Navarrenx is very worth seeing. At the beginning of the 14th century, Navarrenx was converted into a bastide. In the 16th century it was redesigned by the King of Navarre based on the model of the Tuscan city of Lucca. The floor plan is in the shape of a turtle. The wall wall, the bridge Porte St-Antoine, the powder tower and the central square are impressive.

FROM THE RAMPARTS TO LA VAUBAN ... a century before Vauban! Navarrenx, or in Latin Sponda Navarensi, meaning the border of Navarre… It was obvious that this city would arouse the envy of many neighbors and others further afield. Henry II of Albret will even compare himself to "a louse quarreled by two monkeys" when referring to the two Kings of France and Spain peeping over his land. Bastide from the 14th century, it was not until the reign of Henri II d'Albret, grandfather of King Henri IV, to see the construction of its impressive ramparts begin in 1538. 10 years of construction, 1.7 km long, 10 meters high, reputed to be impenetrable and revolutionary, don't these walls and their plan remind you of someone, a famous military architect for example…. Vauban will you tell us? Well little scoop, here in Navarrenx, we are pioneers. These Vauban-style ramparts were thus built a century before him! It is therefore to Fabricio Siciliano, an Italian architect, that Navarrenx owes its fame. Source: https://www.tourisme-bearn-gaves.com/
