Estella (Lizarra) was one of the principal Jewish quarters of Navarre, endowed with a well-organized aljama in the twelfth through fourteenth centuries. In 1328, during the unrest that followed the death of Charles IV of France, the community was massacred by crowds led by a Franciscan friar, an emblematic event of anti-Jewish violence in the kingdom.
