LA MAISON DES TÊTES
Go there and contact
Noble houses in Saint-Palais, with walls and facades engraved forever with the heads of the last kings of Navarre.
The House of Heads is the nickname given to the noble house of Derdoy-Oyhenar. The walls and facades are engraved with the heads of the last kings of Navarre. We recognize Henri II, Jeanne d'Albret, Henri III, the future Henri IV of France. The last 2 heads date from the 17th-century extension: a woman (probably the owner of the house) and a devil. In the same street, you'll find other remarkable 13th-century houses. What's surprising here is that it was the houses themselves that could be ennobled!
