The Town
Discover Arzúa
Arzúa, a village in the heart of Galicia, is one of the places with the greatest Jacobean essence on the entire Way of St James. Its importance is capital, as it is the major hub where the massive Camino Francés meets the routes that arrive by the Camino del Norte and the Camino Primitivo. This makes it a melting pot of pilgrims, a place where accents and stories from all parts of the world come together, creating an atmosphere of camaraderie unique. Arzúa is also famous for its cheese, protected by the Denominación de Origen Arzúa-Ulloa, a soft and creamy delicacy that every walker must try. The village is completely dedicated to the pilgrim, with an immense offer of hostels and services designed for rest and recovery. Local heritage includes St James' church and the chapel of the Magdalena. For the pilgrim, arriving in Arzúa feels like the final stretch is already very close, it's the penultimate major milestone before Santiago. It's a compulsory stop to replenish strength, enjoy the atmosphere and taste authentic Galicia.
