Abstract

The geographical location of the Basque territories and Navarre, bordering on or close to the border with France, led to visits by both monarchs and soldiers throughout the Old Regime. But there was also another component that conditioned them. Their status as territories endowed with a particular legal framework, as well as their peculiar connections with the Crown of Castile, allowed both types of visit to acquire important meanings for the inhabitants and institutions of the four main territorial entities of Iberian Vasconia. In this article we analyse the logic followed in both types of transit, paying special attention to the legal rules developed to regulate them, as well as the marks they left on the roads.
