On the southern edge of the Casco Antiguo off the Paseo Sarasate is the 13th-century Iglesia de San Nicolás the only one of Pamplona’s religious sites to maintain its truly Romanesque design. This architectural movement, the name for which indicates its fundamentally Roman stylistic and structural cues, came to influence many of northern Spain’s monuments built during the centuries leading up to the Middle Ages. Throughout these northern regions, and particularly in the city of Pamplona, later Gothic, Baroque and Neoclassical renovations have largely obscured the original style.
