Pilgrimage of Santiaguiño do Monte

Activity · Padrón, Sar, A Coruña

Image of Padrón, not of the place itself.

Every 25 July the local people climb the hill that dominates the town for the pilgrimage at the chapel, with mass, a picnic and a visit to the spring and the crag that tradition associates with the preaching of the apostle James; the climb among granite boulders is the best-remembered part of the festival.
