Casalarreina: True Relaxation in the Heart of La Rioja Alta

Casalarreina is one of those villages in La Rioja that captivates with its quiet elegance. Many travellers pass through on their way to Haro, but those who stop discover a destination filled with history, character and charm.

Here are some of the most fascinating curiosities of Casalarreina:

• The name: From “Naharruri” to Casa de la Reina

Originally known as Naharruri, a name of Basque origin, the village later became Casalarreina after the stay of Queen Juana I of Castile (Juana la Loca). She visited in 1504 as a guest of the Fernández de Velasco family, and the town was so proud of the royal visit that it adopted its current name.

• The Monastery of La Piedad: A unique jewel

This is the town’s most important monument and a true architectural treasure. It is considered the only example in Spain of the Catholic Monarchs style preserved in such a pure form. Commissioned by the Constable of Castile, its façade showcases delicate stonework that resembles lace.

Curious fact: Inside, you’ll find one of the most impressive choir stalls in the region.

• A village of palaces

For its size, Casalarreina boasts an astonishing number of palaces. As you stroll through its streets, you’ll encounter the Palacio de los Condestables, the Palacio de los Pobes and the Palacio de los Guzmán. Historically, the town served as a summer retreat for Castilian nobility, leaving behind this remarkable architectural legacy.

• The bridge over the Oja River

The stone bridge crossing the Oja River is one of the town’s symbols. Although it appears solid and stately today, it had to be rebuilt several times due to powerful floods. It stands as a testament to how architecture adapted to the strength of nature in La Rioja.

• A benchmark for fine dining

Despite its small size, Casalarreina is a gastronomic reference in La Rioja Alta. It is home to nationally renowned restaurants set in historic buildings such as former wineries and noble houses. It’s the place locals choose when they want to enjoy a traditional roast of the highest quality in an elegant setting.
