This Navaid is located near a small town in the U.S., and named after that town.  It shares an identifier with that town's airport, which has no scheduled airline service.

The name is a "constructed name" of two nouns; things you might find in a rural area.

It's near a staircase, and "Sevier" turbulence is possible!

This NAVAID is in Europe.
The airport where it is located has regional airline service.
Despite being on the airport, it has a different identifier.
It's near a crossroad along a pilgrimage route, in the northern part of that country. 
It's named after the nearby city, which is the capital of the province where the country's language is believed to have originated.

Answer - Burgos (VIA)

This month's navaid is in Europe.  It's near an airport that is in one country, but serves a major city that's in anothercountry, and is adjacent to a third country!  

It's also near another airport; the site of a famous airliner crash, that was the first passenger flight of that type of airplane.
