Abstract

Recent reforms carried out in Sajazarra, in the house adjacent to the Puerta del Arco, has allowed us to define this access as a tower-door with fortified corridor, assuming an important advance in understanding the medieval walling system around the town. We have also found a grave linked to Early Middle Ages cemetery adjacent, previously documented, and has been possible to trace the evolution of architectural space of the old town council.
