Mejores Tours de Santiago de compostela cathedral desde Madrid

As the reputed burial place of St. James, one of the apostles of Jesus, this Romanesque cathedral in Plaza del Obradoiro has for centuries been a place of pilgrimage on the Way of St. James. In fact, so many pilgrims have laid their hands on the pillar just inside the doorway to rest that a groove has been worn in the stone. The sacred relics of St. James lie beneath Santiago de Compostela Cathedral’s high altar in a silver coffer and can be viewed from the crypt.
