Muralla del Revellín
The only surviving 16th-century section of the old city walls and gate on the western side, a reminder of the defence against the French siege of 1521.
The Revellín City Wall is the best-preserved stretch of Logroño's old walls, with the imperial arms of Charles V above the gate. In 1521, French forces besieged the city, and its residents held out until relief arrived. Every year on 11 June, the Fiestas de San Bernabé re-enact the defence of the city here, with bread, fish and wine handed out. A small exhibition room inside the wall is open in summer, and outside lies a green park. The Camino leaves the city to the west from this point.
