Review & FAQ:

The walls were built in 1423 incorporating and protecting the three boroughs that made up Pamplona. In 1512 it became a strategic border outpost as a defense against the French. In 1571, the Citadel was built, reinforcing the walls with many bastions. The walls also prevented the town from expanding until 1888 when permission was granted to remove two bastions. In 1925, the southern wall was demolished. Three quarters of the wall has been conserved. Visitors can view the history at the Interpretive Center. There are two walks, along the upper and the lower parts.
