About this portal

The Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, in Galicia, is the final destination of the Camino de Santiago, one of the oldest and most celebrated pilgrimages in the world, undertaken since the 9th century. According to tradition, the remains of the apostle James rest there, and each year thousands of pilgrims cross Europe on foot, by bicycle, or on horseback to reach its altar. More than a religious destination, the Camino has become an inner journey of transformation, self-knowledge, and encounter among cultures. The energy accumulated by millions of footsteps makes this route a true corridor of telluric force.
