The prestigious routes of Santiago de Compostela

Hello everyone
According to legend, after Pentecost, Saint James undertook a mission of evangelization in Spain. He landed on the Mediterranean coast of Andalusia, and from there headed for Galicia, a region in the extreme north-west of the Iberian Peninsula. After several years of preaching, he returned to Jerusalem, where he was tragically beheaded. Two of his faithful followers then took his body and placed it in a boat, braving the elements by setting sail.

Driven by the wind and sea currents, the boat eventually ran aground at the bottom of an estuary in Galicia, where the town of Iria Flavia, now known as Padrón, was later founded. The two disciples of Saint James chose to bury his body inland, in a place that would later become the city of Santiago de Compostela.

There are several ways to make the pilgrimage, the main one being the GR65. It runs from Le Puy-en-velay to the city of Santiago de Compostela. But there are also pilgrimages to Portugal, Jerusalem…
