    It is called the English Hospital because it was founded and financed by the Anglican Church and British organisations. During that period, with the height of interest in the Camino de Santiago, especially among British pilgrims, the need arose for a place where these walkers could rest and receive medical care. It was built to serve mainly the British and English-speaking pilgrims who, at that time, were travelling the French Way.
