"Then I see the big cross and the Roland chapel appearing from a bank of fog at the top of the Ibaneta Pass (1057 m). I only stop for a moment, thinking of Charlemagne ... and his faithful Roland, who with a rearguard dies was able to stop the pursuers but died in the process."
(Jo Hagen in "Buen Camino. Diary of a bicycle trip on the Way of St. James".
ISBN 978-3-753-45397-2)

Modern chapel, and a memorial stone in memory of Roeland, the faithful paladin of Charlemagne, who is said to have fallen here.
