Princess Leonor Begins Two-Day Visit to Navarra as Princess of Viana

The two-day agenda underscores Zarzuela's plan to raise the heir's profile during a brief pause in her Air and Space Academy training.

Overview

  • The visit opened Friday with an institutional reception at the Palacio de Navarra hosted by regional president María Chivite.
  • Leonor travels to Viana today for her first visit to the town that gives her title its name, including a stop at the ruins of San Pedro for a historical exhibition.
  • The itinerary features an homage at the Monastery of San Salvador de Leyre on Friday and scheduled stops in Olite and Tudela on Saturday.
  • The Royal Household frames the trip around the 600th anniversary of the creation of the Príncipe de Viana title.
  • The outreach follows years of limited royal presence in the region, with Chivite facilitating a visit long planned to normalize ties after earlier exclusions from the Premio Príncipe de Viana ceremony.
