Je l'ai déjà été !Explora el fascinante pasado de Pamplona y descubre cómo se ha desarrollado a lo largo de los siglos.
The origins of Pamplona date back to the first millennium BC, when the Basques established a town called Iruña, which means 'the city' in Basque.In 75 BC, the Roman general Pompey founded the city of Pompaelo, which became an important Roman enclave in the region.During ancient times, Pamplona was a strategic point on commercial and military routes, settling in the fertile plain of the Arga River.
During the Middle Ages, Pamplona was the capital of the Kingdom of Pamplona, which later became known as the Kingdom of Navarra.In the 10th century and under the reign of Sancho III the Elder in the 11th century, the Camino de Santiago was consolidated through Navarrese lands, which promoted the urban and economic development of the city.The medieval walls and churches that still remain date from this era.In the modern era, Pamplona maintained its regional importance and began to expand beyond its walls, adapting to social and political changes in Spain.
In the 20th century, Pamplona experienced a process of industrialization and modernization, especially from the 60s and 70s, with strong internal and later foreign immigration.The city has opted for sustainability and quality of life, transforming former military areas into green spaces and improving its cultural and transportation infrastructure.In the 21st century, Pamplona continues its urban development with projects such as RUNA 2025, which seeks to integrate rivers into the urban fabric for a more ecological and resilient city.In addition, it has been a candidate for European Capital of Culture and maintains a prominent role in the economy and culture of northern Spain.
