Artwork in the Albergue Cappuchinos largely associated with the camino. The convent converted to albergue has a sense of order and tradition still with direct access to the adjoining church.
Estella grew as a centre purely to serve pilgrims in the early years of 1000. On the outskirts of the town the Irache Monastery and associated winery provide free wine and water for pilgrims. 'Fuente del Vino' is a must stop point for all with thousands of litres of wine dispensed freely every week of the year.
Vinyards like those at Irache become common as we move towards the famous bodegas.
And Los Arcos and the church building another landmark on the journey.
