Castiello de Jaca
Village
Castiello de Jaca is a municipality in the comarca of La Jacetania, in the province of Huesca, at 921 metres of altitude on a mountainside, on the right bank of the Aragón river, in the Canfranc valley; through its territory pass the access road to the Garcipollera and the Aragonese branch of the Camino de Santiago. It has 280 inhabitants (INE 2025), including the village of Aratorés. In the upper part of the village stands the 12th-century Romanesque parish church, remodelled in the 16th and 17th centuries, and in its territory survive, in ruins, the Romanesque hermitages of Nuestra Señora de Trujillo and San Bartolomé, from the same century. It is known as the village of the thousand relics because of a legend according to which a pilgrim on his way to Santiago, unable to go on carrying the sack in which he bore them, left them there.

The municipality lies on the Aragonese stretch of the Camino de Santiago, a natural gateway to the Garcipollera valley.
