The building built in Romanesque architecture was the place where the king and other royal family of Navarre lived. According to historians, the royal family lived in the palace from 12th century to 15th century. It would also mean that the palace was built in the 12th century. Because of the age of the building, a part of the palace had caved in and it was rebuilt in the year 1991.
