Retortillo de Soria

Retortillo de Soria is a small and tranquil village that marks an episode on the Way of the Wool in the province of Soria. Its main attraction lies in its rural authenticity, above all, in its proximity to the impressive archaeological site of Tiermes, "The Spanish Pompeii", an ancient Celtic-Roman city with spectacular excavated remains in the rock. For the pilgrim interested in history, a visit to Tiermes is a cultural complement of first order. The village of Retortillo itself offers a peaceful atmosphere, ideal for resting in one of the most sparsely populated areas on the route. Its church of San Pedro and the remnants of its medieval wall are witnesses to its past. With basic services for the walker, such as hostel, it is a stop that allows you to enjoy the silence of Sorian fields and reflect on the footprints of civilizations that have inhabited these lands. In the Way of Santiago, Retortillo is a point of connection with the deeper history of the peninsula.
