Right in the city center.

The pilgrimage route repeatedly involves crossing valleys and rivers like the Rio Oja – as here at Santo Domingo de la Calzada. The bridges are sometimes relatively modern, sometimes medieval, and sometimes even older.

It crosses the Oja River, connecting different parts of the city. Built in the 12th century by Saint Dominic de la Calzada to facilitate the passage of pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago. The stone bridge features several arches, a fine example of medieval engineering.

The Cathedral of Santo Domingo de la Calzada, also known as the Cathedral of El Salvador, is an impressive monument located in the town of Santo Domingo de la Calzada. The cathedral was built between the 12th and 13th centuries, combining Romanesque and Gothic styles. A unique feature is its free-standing tower, separated from the main body of the cathedral.

A great view of this impressive landscape.

The place impresses not only with the cathedral and the bell tower, but also with its historic old town

Santo Domingo de la Calzada is a municipality in the Spanish province and region of La Rioja. The city is named after its founder, Dominic de la Calzada, who built a bridge, hospital and hotel here for pilgrims on the French Way, the most popular path of the Camino de Santiago.

“Bicigrino” is a term used on the Camino de Santiago and is a combination of the Spanish words “bici”, meaning bicycle, and “peregrino”, meaning pilgrim1. A Bicigrino is therefore a pilgrim who covers the Camino de Santiago by bicycle21. To receive a Compostela certificate, a Bicigrino must complete at least the last 200 km of a Camino route, ending in Santiago de Compostela. It is a trend that has developed in recent years, with more and more pilgrims choosing to do the Camino de Santiago by bicycle. It's a great way to experience the beautiful landscapes and historic sites along the Camino. 😊
