The small Bercian town of Molinaseca, located a few kilometers from Ponferrada, is one of the most important enclaves on the Jacobean Route. Its streets with a medieval flavor invite you to stroll slowly, not in vain, in 1975 it was declared a Historic-Artistic Site.

For many pilgrims on the “Camino Frances” through northern Spain to the tomb of the apostle in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, the goal is getting closer and closer. On the 23rd stage (counting according to Rother) from Foncebadon to Ponferrada, here in Molinaseca you can take a break to reach the day's destination freshly strengthened.

Although the bridge is believed to be of Roman origin, its current structure is primarily medieval Romanesque, with some later renovations in the 18th and 20th centuries. It is built of ashlar and cobblestone and consists of seven spans of varying sizes. It is the starting point of the town's main street, Calle Real, which ends at a cross and is home to most of Molinaseca's rural houses, bars, and restaurants.
If you ever have the opportunity to visit it, you will immerse yourself in the rich Jacobean tradition and enjoy its historical beauty. 🚶‍♂️🌉
