The main feature of the complex is the 13th-century Gothic Iglesia de La Colegiata (collegiate church), shown at left, which displays the Virgin de Orreaga. In the cloister, the Capilla de San Agustin keeps the alabaster tomb bearing the likeness and remains of King Sancho VII “The Strong,” whose crowning achievement was his victory at the battle of Navas de Tolosa.
Not far from the church is the Gothic Iglesia de Santiago and the Romanesque Espíritu Santo, also known as the Charlemagne Silo. The latter was formerly the pilgrims’ Hospital de Itzandegia and purportedly the site where Charlemagne buried Roland and his ill-fated rearguard. A museum inside displays metallurgical pieces along with a few paintings, sculptures and an interesting permanent exhibition on the Camino de Santiago.
