The Palace of Vélaz de Medrano (Basque: Vélaz de Medranotarren Gaztelua-Juaregia; Spanish: Palacio de Vélaz de Medrano and even Castillo Palacio de Cabo de Armeria de los Vélaz de Medrano de Igúzquiza) is the former seat and residence of the noble Medrano family in Igúzquiza, Navarre (valley of Santesteban de la Solana). It was directly linked to the perpetual lordship of Igúzquiza, held by the same noble family. The castle-palace of Vélaz de Medrano is currently privately owned and listed in the Spanish Historical Heritage, obtaining the protection of the generic declaration of the Spanish Historical Heritage decree on April 22, 1949, and protected by Law 16/1985 of June 25, 1985. The Palace of Vélaz de Medrano was also certified and protected by the Commission of Historical and Artistic Monuments of Navarra, a public body in charge of the conservation and protection of antiquities, a direct precedent, together with the Culture Council, of the current Prince of Viana Institution. The Hispania Nostra Scientific Committee have also recognized and designated this palace under the official red list of the Hispania Nostra.
