Ledigos, in the province of Palencia, is a small town with about 60 inhabitants, located on the French Way of St. James, between Calzadilla de la Cueza and Terradillos de los Templarios. Its history, architecture, and natural surroundings make it an interesting stop for pilgrims and travelers.

Very warm here

“From gentle rural tracks, you reach this imposing 16th-century artillery fortress. It has a square layout with towers and sloping walls; it preserves loopholes, spiral staircases, and a complete structure. A perfect stop with cultural interest and beautiful panoramic views of Tierra de Campos.” Add this stop to short circular routes (~30 km). Comfortable terrain, good terrain for riding, and stress-free. It fits perfectly with the other stops: Lancia, Torre Almanza, and Ermita Virgen de la Guía.

On the approximately 800-kilometer route through northern Spain – perhaps even earlier in France – the pilgrim has repeatedly crossed borders that may have had significant significance in the past, and some still do today from a regional-political perspective. However, for us, who are striving toward the tomb of the Apostle James, the "Credencial" was the only important identification document, and pilgrimage routes – like the heavens – have always been borderless.

It is located at the exit of Carrion de Los Condes in the direction of Terradillos de Los Templarios

The Arco de San Benito is an impressive monument in Sahagún, located in the region of Castilla y León, Spain. It was built around 1662 by the architect Felipe Berrojo to replace the old Romanesque portal of the Monasterio de San Benito. The arch is designed as a triumphal arch, under which the N-120 passes, and is also known as "la puerta de Sahagún" (the gate of Sahagún). The monument is richly decorated with a central shield, inscriptions and sculptures of Saints Facundo and Primitivo. At the top is the royal shield, and there are also sculptures of Alfonso III and Alfonso VI, who were important protectors of the monastery.
