Archivo Real y General de Navarra Review

This Rafael Moneo-designed archive of glass and stone ingeniously contained within a Romanesque palace is Pamplona's architectural treasure. Containing papers and parchments going back to the 9th century, the archive holds 23,000 linear meters of documents and has room for 17,000 meters more. The library and reading rooms are lined with cherrywood and covered with a gilded ceiling.
