A forgotten and closed church

A journey to the Pyrenees in Spain ~ Navarre Autonomous Community Inside this simple church, there is an exhibition featuring paintings that depict the evolution of the Kingdom of Navarre from 925 to 1234 (faithful to history), which might surprise many visitors. It also includes the present-day province of Biscay and serves as a great example of urban history. For a decade, it has remained closed and forgotten. Located in the former Jewish quarter, it is believed that it might have originally been a synagogue. It has been mistakenly identified as a castle church; although it is connected to the walled area, it was never a castle church.
