The Palace of Vélaz de Medrano is the most significant monument in Igúzquiza, overlooking the town and municipality.
The church of San Andrés de Igúzquiza is under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Pamplona y Tudela and deanery of Estella-Viana. The parish church of Igúzquiza bears the name of the apostle Saint Andrew and boasts valuable Romanesque lineage, with the chi-rho or labarum of Constantine above the main door. Housed in its presbytery are several military trophies, flags, weapons, gauntlets, helmet, and spurs, probably donated by one of the knights of Medrano.
