The Camino de Santiago pilgrimage, otherwise known as the Way of St James, is an ancient pilgrimage that leads to the shrine of the apostle of Saint James the Great. From the Middle Ages to the present day, pilgrims have begun their journeys all over Europe and made their way towards the shrine, located in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain.<\/p>\n

The pilgrimage became popular amongst Christians after the relics of Saint James were discovered in the 9th century. Despite its strong religious foundation, many who walk the Camino use this pilgrimage as a spiritual journey for self-discovery and personal growth. Historically, the pilgrimage would have begun at the pilgrim’s home; however, nowadays, there are numerous well-established routes pilgrims can choose to walk. Whether it be the Camino Primitivo, Camino Franc\u00e9s\u00a0or\u00a0Camino Portugu\u00e9s,\u00a0<\/em>pilgrims will walk through a myriad of culturally rich cities filled with incredible history and architecture.<\/p>\n

Regardless of which route you choose, a walk along the Camino is an art and architectural history lesson in and of itself, with many cathedrals and monuments to admire. Listed below are 6 architectural sites and towns that serve as pilgrimage pit stops, and which could very well take part in your future Camino expedition!<\/p>\n

\n

Cathedral of Saint Mary of Burgos<\/h2>\n

This UNESCO World Heritage Site is located in the Spanish city of Burgos and dates back to the 13th century. This Gothic cathedral sits on the site of a previously built Romanesque church and was officially completed in the 16th century. Its unmistakable Gothic fa\u00e7ade can be seen in all its details, embellishments and vertical nature. Gothic religious sites were purposefully built high and embellished with elements that created a sense of verticality in order to feel closer to heaven. From its pointed arches, structural buttresses, interior vaulted ceilings and ornamented fa\u00e7ade, this grandiose site speaks to the colorful history of Gothic architecture.<\/p>\n

\n

Mud\u00e9jar Architecture in Sahag\u00fan<\/h2>\n

The city of Sahag\u00fan is part of the\u00a0Camino\u00a0Franc\u00e9s route and has a long and colorful history. Located in the province of L\u00e9on, this town contains examples of early Mud\u00e9jar architecture. This ornamented approach to building was used by the Iberian Kingdom and was influenced by Islamic art and architecture (namely by the former Al-Andalus territory). Mud\u00e9jar architecture eventually influenced certain stylistic decorative elements of Gothic architecture. The style is known for its distinctive use of brick, glazed tiles, geometric patterns and decorative calligraphy. Due to the town’s diverse population during the Middle Ages, its architecture is a blend of different crafts and crafting techniques. Some sites worth visiting are the churches of San Tirso, San Lorenzo and La Peregrina.<\/p>\n

\n

Puenta la Reina<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"\"

The town of Puenta la Reina is located in Spain’s northern Navarre region. Pilgrims pass through Puenta la Reina on the Camino Franc\u00e9s route and get the chance to visit the town’s main attraction: the Puente Rom\u00e1nico. This bridge is attributed to the Muniadona of Castille \u2014 the Queen of Pamplona and wife to King Sancho Garc\u00e9s III. The queen had a six-arched bridge built over the Arga river specifically for the pilgrims on their way to the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral. Not only is this site a beautiful Romanesque structure, but it equally plays an important part in the Camino’s history, thus making for a special visit.<\/p>\n

\n

The Episcopal Palace of Astorga<\/h2>\n
\"\"

The Camino offers the chance to see certain architectural sites attributed to the famed Antoni Gaud\u00ed. Located in the city of Astorga is the Episcopal Palace, built in the 19th century and designed in the Catalan Modernisme style. Drawing on both Medieval and Arab motifs, this artistic movement marked the revindication of Catalan culture. First designed by Gaud\u00ed and later completed by Ricardo Garc\u00eda Guereta, the edifice is adorned with a granite fa\u00e7ade and boasts both a Gothic and Gaud\u00ed-esque design. Today, it serves as a museum dedicated to the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage.<\/p>\n

\n

Church of Saint Mary of Eunate<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Church of Saint Mary of Eunate, Muruz\u00e1bal, Spain, Wikimedia Commons<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

Located in the Muruz\u00e1bal, Spain is a Romanesque church built in the 12th century. Part of the\u00a0Camino Franc\u00e9s route, this church is especially lovely to visit due to its location. Built right in the middle of a flat and open landscape, viewers can admire the beauty of the church as well as the surrounding sunflower-filled landscape. Located before the Puenta la Reina, the church was constructed with a distinctive octagonal layout and is dedicated to the Virgin Mary. There is little known of the structure’s history, which makes it an equally mysterious and alluring site to visit.<\/p>\n

\n

Santiago de Compostela Cathedral<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Western fa\u00e7ade of the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral, Santiago de Compostela, Spain, Wikimedia Commons<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

Arguably every pilgrim’s favorite site is the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral. Home to the burial of Saint James the Great, reaching this site is the ultimate goal of every pilgrim walking the Camino. This Romanesque structure contains several Gothic, Baroque and Renaissance elements \u2014 making it quite a marvel to see. A distinctive section is the Glory Portico, a Romanesque portico and main gate of the cathedral. Designed by the sculptor and architect Master Mateo, the Glory Portico is one of the most recognizable parts of the Compostela Cathedral. It features three large arches adorned with over 200 Romanesque sculptures and was later altered to include certain Baroque elements.<\/p>\n

Moreover, the cathedral’s western fa\u00e7ade leads onto the town’s main square, Praza do Obradoiro, and is attributed to Baroque architect Fernando de Casa y Novoa. Pilgrims often indulge in a night’s stay at the historic Hotel Parador Santiago de Compostela, which sits next to the cathedral and originally served as a Royal Hospital. The church holds two daily masses to welcome and congratulate pilgrims on their journey.<\/p>\n
