    The Church of St. James was one of the churches where pilgrims who were ill and could no longer continue could have the Compostela issued. They then did not have to complete the journey to Santiago de Compostela but could finish their journey here as usual.
    During excavations around the church, many pilgrim graves were found, so it can be assumed that many pilgrims did not make it back home.

    The Church of Santiago in Villafranca del Bierzo is a place of great historical and religious importance in the area. Inside the church, you will find a serene atmosphere and simple but elegant decoration. Its main altarpiece and various works of religious art stand out.
