Staircase and Chapel of Our Lady of the Snows (Capela das Neves), Portomarín

Highlight • Religious Site

The Escalinata and Capela das Neves is a historical monument located in Portomarín. The staircase is an imposing stone structure that is located right in front of the ugly bridge through which you cross the Miño River to reach Portomarín. It is part of the French route of the Camino de Santiago. At the top of the stairs is the Capela das Neves, a small chapel. This chapel is located on an arch of the old medieval bridge of the town.
It is a place with a rich history and a spectacular arrival for pilgrims who travel the Camino de Santiago. I hope you enjoy exploring the Escalinata and Capela das Neves! 🚶‍♂️🏞️

Church of St John of Portomarín

Highlight • Religious Site

Once in the valley, the Igrexa de San Xoán de Portomarín church was dismantled stone by stone in the 1960s and rebuilt at its present location. Reason: The valley was flooded, and is now filled by a water reservoir. But this is not the only thing that makes the structure so special: built in the late Romanesque style, it was designed both as a castle and as a church and therefore has architectural features of both styles.

Portomarín

Highlight • Religious Site

Portomarín is a pretty town next to the Miño river.
The transit of pilgrims throughout the year marks the rhythm of life in this town. At your pace, you can not miss the photo with the letters that form your name or on the bridge that crosses the river.
As buildings, the churches of San Pedro, San Juan and San Nicolás stand out. The latter is located in the town hall square, where you will also see the monument to the pilgrim.
