Ok from top left to right...
The big fat H with the two stars means that there are hotels/ hostals / albergues aka " Alojamiento". Sometimes there also will be an " A " specifically meaning albergues.
Second : the little " i" . Stands for information. Means that there is a tourist information centre. In a bigger city this might be in a different location but in smaller villages it is a part of the town hall aka ayuntamiento or casa consistorial.
Third : a bridge aka puente medieval. Although now I think of it , might also be a description of the whole medieval centre?
Fourth : this is a guess but I 'm pretty sure it is a children's playground. Every town/ village has one. And yes children do still play outside and till late in the evening. It is a lovely cultural thing, please do not complain about the noise.
Fifth : the red cross : at least a centro de salud aka polyclinic ( a green cross = pharmacy ). In bigger cities the red cross can be substituted by a blue H meaning hospital.
The bottom left to right...
First : the olympic rings : sportsfield(s).
Second : the Camino flecha aka sign : obvious I guess
Third : the block of cheese etc meaning bars / cafeterias.
Fourth : That is kind of a mystery to me...This might refer to the well known Basque sport of pelota but I'm not sure?
Fifth : the cutlery or reference to restaurants.

Might that "kind of mystery" be piled kegs of wine for a nearby vineyard?

I was sure that the "castenet classes" was actually Wiley Coyote's bomb making facility.

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Since the sign is for Los Arcos I was thinking this represented the arches of the town or Church in the main plaza?
