The Paradores

Parador
de Olite, Olite, Navarra Province ***
The Parador occupies one
of the wings of the majestic 15th C. palace-castle, declared a National
Monument, on which the towers and battlements stand out. In keeping with
its medieval setting, it rises up on solid stone walls and offers a glimpse
of the numerous historical adventures it lived through in other times,
such as the holding of parliament under the government of the Noble King.
The medieval spirit is maintained on the inside, with very beautiful stained
glass windows on the staircase and in the dining room, arcades and ornamental
details such as armour, rugs, wrought iron lamps and wooden coffered ceilings. |
