Cirauqui ( Basque Zirauki ) is a municipality and a village on the Camino de Santiago in the Spanish region of Navarre . The name comes from Basque and means "adders nest", which probably alludes to the previous inhabitants of the hill on which Cirauqui lies.

The village has a closed medieval core and is crowned by the remarkable Romanesque church of San Roman. At the exit of the village, a section of the Roman highway and a Roman bridge have been preserved.
