Pelegrins of Villares de Orbigo

Highlight • Monument

French Way of Santiago

Tip by

27.1 km

These crosses have religious significance and mark the route of the Camino, offering pilgrims points of reference and devotion. These crosses were strategically placed along the Camino to help pilgrims follow the correct route. In many cases, they also indicate the distance to other points of interest or nearby towns.

Plaza Mayor Building Facades

Highlight • Monument

The Plaza Mayor of Astorga is located in the historic and commercial center, in what could have been the ancient Roman forum. It has a rectangular floor plan and is surrounded by buildings with arcades and balconies.

As it could not be otherwise, the most notable building in the square is the Town Hall, baroque from 1765, topped by a clock with its famous maragatos.

Another of the buildings worth visiting in this square is the Apothecary, which still preserves shelves and pharmacy bottles from the beginning of the last century. In addition, the square is the scene of fairs and markets.

In our case we stopped to have a beer and tapas something before continuing our route. I recommend buying chocolate and shortbread.

Gaudí's episcopal palace, in Astorga, is a neo-Gothic style building designed by the modernist architect Antonio Gaudí. Due to its uniqueness, it constitutes one of the most outstanding buildings in Astorga's monumental heritage. In 1963 it became the Caminos Museum, and numerous and outstanding pieces from the Diocese of Astorga are exhibited, including prehistory, epigraphy and Roman numismatics, religious art from various periods and contemporary art.

Church of St John the Baptist, Hospital de Órbigo

Highlight • Religious Site

Saint John the Baptist (San Juan Bautista), to whom this church in Hospital de Orbigo is dedicated, is – like Saint Joseph – a man on the threshold between the Old and the New Testament. His parents are Zechariah and Elisabeth. After the proclamation of God's incarnation, the Mother of God visits her relative Elisabeth, who will give birth to a son in old age, John the Baptist.
This is half a year older than Jesus and is considered his forerunner / pioneer. He lives in the desert, preaches the repentance of sins to the Jewish population and baptizes them in the Jordan, where Jesus also comes to be baptized, being filled with the Holy Spirit that descends on him from heaven.
The memorial day of John the Baptist (San Juan Bautista) in the calendar of saints is on June 24th, exactly half a year before 'Christmas Eve'.
