The Portuguese itinerary of the Camino de Santiago

The portuguese itinerary of the Camino de Santiago became important since the independence of Portugal in the twelfth century. This itinerary is rich in history, with monuments, churches and references to the pilgrim world and it is also the best equipped in terms of hospitality that is getting better year by year. Many writings report journeys along this route, by travelers of all nationalities. However, towards the end of the 15th century, the Portuguese path fell into decline due to the spread of diseases such as the plague, religion wars and increasingly frequent attacks on pilgrims. In the following 300 years, almost all traces of the paths in Portugal leading to Santiago were lost, as indeed also in Spain. Everything changed when Pope Leo XIII sanctioned the discovery of the remains of the saint that had been forgotten and hidden. In the twentieth century the ancient ways of faith were rediscovered throughout Europe also thanks to the intervention of Pope John Paul II. This is the Portuguese itinerary of the Camino de Santiago.

After the Roman bridge of Cesures, the Way enters the lands of A Coruna continuing parallel to the N-550 until it reaches Padròn, a town with a strong Jacobean tradition.

In Santiago, the Portuguese itinerary enters the monumental area from Porta Faxeira and heads towards the Praterias facade of the Compostela cathedral. Now is the time to follow the tradition: We will go to the Portico della Gloria under the figure of the seated Apostle, to ask for three wishes. Behind the same column is the figure of the master Matteo (the builder), who is given three heads "so that he can transmit his knowledge and talent". After we go to the crypt where the sepulcher of Santiago is located, and finally the most significant is the embrace to the Saint. Overnight.
