Estella, Navarra, Spain: A great star, and the Holy Virgin — July 1085
Estella, in Navarra, is another place named after an unusual aerial sighting. The Virgin
and a great star are said to have appeared to a group of shepherds on the mountain. The consequent worship of the area brought in pilgrims by the hundreds and King Sancho Ramirez built a sanctuary there. A sign on its capilla reads: Esta es la estrella Que bajd del Cielo a Estella Para reparo de ella. This is the star That came down from the Sky to Estella To observe it.
