The Ciudadela de Jaca rents out halls, a chapel and open-air spaces for courses, conferences, congresses, receptions and cultural events, with a hall for up to 250 people. The fortress, also called the Castillo de San Pedro, stands in Jaca in the province of Huesca and is managed by the Consorcio del Castillo de San Pedro.
Seminars and company events
The Salón Panadería is the main working room. It holds up to 250 people and is described as a multipurpose space for exhibitions, courses, conferences, congresses and receptions. It is equipped with public address system, video projector, Wi-Fi, heating, restrooms and a cloakroom. The consortium also rents portable video projectors, laptops and projection screens separately.
Businesses and citizens can rent premises for courses, conferences, congresses, art exhibitions and catering. The consortium states that any rental depends on the normal running of the monument, so visits keep taking place at their set hours unless an exception is approved by the castle's management. Plan your date with the rental manager.
Weddings and receptions
The official site presents the spaces for cultural acts, congresses and catering services, and does not advertise weddings. For a reception or a cocktail, two spaces are named. The Patio del Pozo is an open-air courtyard for 100 people, suited to aperitifs, concerts and cultural activities. The Salón Panadería can also be rented for a catering service.

Accommodation

History and setting
The Ciudadela is a pentagonal military fortress that dates from the 16th century and combines the Castillo de San Pedro with a Museo de Miniaturas Militares. It was named the best museum of popular culture in Spain in 2025 by its own account. The permanent exhibition in the Sala de Batallas covers Hechos de Armas, Hechos de Arte, and the visits include a theatrical tour called La Memoria de la Piedra.
Getting there
The Ciudadela is in Jaca, in Aragon, at the foot of the Pyrenees. The site offers a downloadable guide map of the fortress. For rentals, the rental manager can be reached through the contact form and telephone published on the services page, and you should ask about access, loading and parking for equipment.
