Gothic House Gothic house from the end of the 15th century, which is notable for the enormous pointed doorway with a moulded ring and large voussoirs, on the keystone of which a quartered coat of arms is engraved, on the first and fourth floors, three bands with wolves inscribed on them, and on the second and third floors, panels. On the second floor, there are three pairs of twinned windows, with semicircular arches, with second lobed arches with balls and ogees. The wooden eaves that crown the building are notable.

The church was built at the end of the 12th century in the Romanesque style with Mozarabic influences. The octagonal design is a reference to the Templars. There used to be a hospice here that belonged to the Order of St. John and today it is a hostel for pilgrims.

The Iglesia del Crucifijo in Puente la Reina is a fascinating historical monument deeply rooted in the history of the Camino de Santiago. Originally built in the 12th century by the Knights Templar, the church was later taken over by the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. The church consists of two different naves: a Romanesque one from the 12th century and a Gothic one that was added later. What makes this church really special is the impressive Gothic crucifix in the shape of a “Y”, one of the most remarkable Gothic sculptures in Spain.

The centre of the ''Plaza do Castillo'' has been occupied since 28 June 1943 by an 18-metre-high bandstand raised on a stepped drum and whose dome is supported by Ionic columns. Previously, there was a wooden one that replaced the Beneficencia fountain in 1910, the work of Luis Paret, known in Pamplona as "La Mariblanca", which currently adorns the city's Taconera gardens.

This room allows every pilgrim to write down intercessions and prayers to place at the Jesus statue or write them in the prayer book. A simple, beautiful room that has preserved much of the old spirituality. Pilgrim station.
