SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA Compostela, Field of
stars, is where the remains of the Apostle Saint
James (San Tiago) are buried, in the crypt of the
magnificent Romanesque catedral de Santiago de
Compostela. Saint James has been named the Patron
Saint of Spain. The Catedral boast the largest
botafumeiro, incense burner, in the world. It
was declared a holy city in the Middle Ages, and
became the destination of pilgrims from all over
Western Europe, throughout the centuries. The
cockleshell is the sign of the pilgrim. It is
known in France as Coquille Saint Jacques (Saint
James cockleshell). The route of the pilgrimage
is known as El Camino de Santiago. There is the
Northern Green Route and the Southern French Route

La Catedral de Santiago
  • Its first sanctuary over the tomb of the Apostle
    James was ordered by King Alfons II, the Chaste,
    of Asturias, and by the Bishop Teodomiro in the
    9th cent. King Alfons III, the Great, built
    towards the end of that century a more beautiful
    basilica, that the Muslim visir known as
    Almonzor, destroyed in AD 997, and even though he
    did not violated the tomb of the Saint, stole the
    bell taking it to Córdoba with Christian
    prisoners. Two centuries later, in 1236,
    Ferdinand III won over the Muslims, taking the
    bell once more with the use of Islamic prisoners.

Holy Years at Santiago de Compostela
  • Whenever St James's day (25th July) falls on a
    Sunday, the cathedral declares a Holy or Jubilee
    Year. Holy Years fall every 6, 5, 6, and 11
    years the last ones were 1982, 1993, and 1999.
    Every 25 of July, the Festivity of the Apostle
    James, patron Saint of Spain, is celebrated and
    when this day falls on a Sunday, it is proclaimed
    as "Xacobean Year, or Year of Jubilee". The XX
    century had four,

Subsequent Holy Years will be 2004, 2010, 2021,
2027 and 2032.

Holy Years at Santiago de Compostela          
                   The statue of St James over
the Puerta Santa of Santiago Cathedral The Puerta
Santa (Holy Door), which gives access to the
Cathedral from the Plaza de la Quintana is opened
on 31st December on the eve of each Holy Year,
and walled up again a year later. As in the
past, pilgrims reaching Santiago during a Holy
Year, and fulfilling the conditions for it, are
granted a plenary indulgence and they are still
years when particularly large numbers of pilgrims
arrive. Santiago (besides being a European City
of Culture) is participating  in the Jubilee of
the Universal Church in 2000, treating it as an
exceptional Holy Year, and granting the plenary
indulgence to those who qualify for it.  However,
the Holy Door was closed on 31st December 1999,
and will be reopened for the next Compostellan
Holy Year, 2004. 1999, as an "official" Holy
Year, and the last of the Millenium, saw
unprecedented numbers of pilgrims arriving at
Santiago, and although we anticipate a fall in
numbers in 2000, the fact that it is being
treated as an exceptional Holy Year is likely to
mean that numbers remain high. If you are
planning to make your pilgrimage, be prepared -
especially in the most popular summer months
