Guillena is the first official stop on the Vía de la Plata (Silver Route) when you leave from Seville. The Vía de la Plata is one of the longest and historically most important pilgrimage routes to Santiago de Compostela. Pilgrims who start this route in Seville walk about 22-23 kilometers to Guillena on the first day. Here they find the first pilgrim hostel and can rest for the next stages north. Guillena is therefore an important starting point and a well-known name for pilgrims who walk the Vía de la Plata.
