Geocache Description:


            La Catedral de Santa Maria es una de las joyas arquitectónicas que atesora Pamplona. Este templo gótico de los siglos XIV y XV sustituyó al antiguo templo románico destruido en 1276. tras la sobria fachada neoclásica se esconden dos tesoros imprescindibles: el sepulcro del rey Carlos III y su esposa Leonor y un claustro que es una de las cumbres universales del gótico. Además, la campana 'María' es la más grande en uso de España. Cerca encontramos la plaza de la Navarrería, donde está el palacio del Marqués de Rozalejo, construido a comienzos del siglo XVIII. De fachada barroca, este palacio destaca por el hermoso portón con arco central y el escudo heráldico que lo preside.

            The Cathedral of Santa Maria is one of Pamplona's architectural gems. The present Gothic building built in the 14th and 15th centuries replaced the old Romanesque one, which was destroyed in 1276. Behind its sober Neoclassical façade lie two treats not to be missed: the tomb of Charles III and his wife Leonor, and a cloister, considered one of the best examples of Gothic architecture in the world. The bell known as ''María'' is the largest bell still in use in Spain. Nearby, the Plaza de Navarrería is home to the Palace of the Marquis of Rozalejo, built at the start of the 18th century. with a baroque façade, the most prominent features of the place are its beautiful doorway with central arch and the coat of arms which crowns the front.
