Itinerary

  • Cathedral De Santiago de Compostela

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    We will begin with a brief historical introduction, to later begin a guided walking route, explaining the facades of the Cathedral with the squares and monuments that surround it. Thus we will see the facades of Platerias (the only Romanesque façade that is preserved), Obradoiro (masterpiece of Fernando de Casas y Novoa), Azabachería (main entrance door of the pilgrims in the EM) and Quintana (where we find the Holy Door and the Monastery of San Paio de Antealtares, founded in the 9th century to guard the tomb of the Apostle). And a lot of spectacular buildings and monuments, which we will discover together, through their legends and characters ...
  • Parque de la Alameda

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    We will pass through the Porta Faxeira, one of the main gates of the medieval wall and through which the pilgrims of the Portuguese Way entered. We will end our visit in the Alameda Park, a 56,087m2 garden, of great botanical and monumental interest, where we will learn about the unique history of the "Dos Marías" and will make a brief summary of other pieces of special interest that can be discovered, already individually, after finishing the visit.
  • Santiago de Compostela. Casco Historico

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Next, we will discover some of the most emblematic streets of the old town, such as Rúa Nova, with the church of Santa María Salomé, the only Spanish church dedicated to the Apostle's mother; the Rúa del Vilar with its beautiful arcades and the Rúa del Franco, where most of the gastronomic offer of the old town is concentrated and where its restaurants reflect the heritage of medieval tavern keepers.
  • Monasterio de San Martin Pinario

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    We will continue our guided tour, appreciating the facade of the monastery and church of San Martín Pinario, which is the second largest monastery in Spain after El Escorial. We will also enter the area of the old Jewish quarter, reaching the square where the Holy Inquisition carried out its autos de fe.
  • Mercado de Abastos de Santiago

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    We will pass through the Plaza de Abastos, the second most visited place in the city after the cathedral. And we will admire the fantastic 14th century portico of the church of San Fiz de Solovio. We will cross the Mazarelos arch, the only arch and door that remains from the old medieval wall.
