The Iglesia de Santa Eufemia in Villafranca (Navarra) is a particularly important example of Baroque church architecture in northern Spain. The church was built in the 18th century and is considered one of the most important Baroque buildings in Navarra. It was built partly on the remains of older (Gothic) predecessor buildings and therefore combines different construction phases. Characteristic is its floor plan in the form of a Latin cross with a single, spacious nave and side chapels. Inside, the baroque vaults with lunettes and a dome on so-called pendentives above the crossing are particularly impressive.

The viewpoint offers a vertical drop of approximately 392 meters, where on clear days you can see the Bardenas Reales, Villafranca, Marcilla, and even the Pyrenees. The landscape is xerophytic, composed of gypsum and eroded clay, overlooking the confluence of the Arga and Aragón rivers before they flow into the Ebro.

Funes is a destination with great diversity in a compact area. It offers history (Roman and medieval), stunning natural beauty (ravines, rivers, viewpoints), a unique winemaking heritage, and excellent hiking and biking trails without the need for long journeys. The contrast between the robust heritage and the serenity of the riverside landscape creates an immersive and authentic experience. Ideal for those seeking a blend of cultural and natural activities, whether as a couple, in a group, or alone.

It is located at Plaza de la Cava, 1, in the town center of Marcilla (Navarra), easily accessible and surrounded by bars and a children's playground. This 15th-century Gothic fortress was built of brick on a stone foundation by Mosén Pierres de Peralta, with material and financial support from Charles III the Noble. It served both as a defensive stronghold and as a palatial residence for the Marquesses of Falces, descendants of Peralta. In 1516, the Marchioness Ana de Velasco saved the castle from being demolished by order of Cardinal Cisneros.
