Jaca Citadel

Highlight • Castle

The great pentagonal citadel is the most imposing structure in the city.

Construction of the complex began in 1592. The occasion was the European religious wars of the 16th century and the strategically important location of the city of Jaca near the border and at the foot of important passes to France. Construction was completed in 1670.
In 2007, a museum of military miniatures (Museo de Miniaturas Militares) was opened in the fortress.
If you want to visit the citadel, you should note that it closes between 1:30 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. After that it's open again until 8:00 p.m.

Fountain at the Cantera promenade

Highlight • Natural Monument

Fresh water fountain at the beginning of the Paseo de la Cantera. From the source there are very nice views of the Aragón river valley and the surrounding villages.

Iguácel Hermitage

Highlight • Religious Site

A classic for the residents of the Aragón Valley and an idyllic place to arrive, with a perfect esplanade to take a break and have lunch. A spring of water sprouts from the back of the hermitage, which I fill the bottle with every time I pass by.

Monastery of Santa María de Iguácel

Highlight • Religious Site

The monastery of Santa María de Iguácel, built next to the bed of the Ijuez river, is a Romanesque building from the 11th century. Thanks to later reforms, it is in a very good state of conservation. It is worth visiting the interior, as the apse is decorated with paintings that may have been done around the 15th century.
