Entrance to the Portuguese Way in Galicia. Tui, with its imposing Cathedral-Fortress over the River Minho, offers a historic and monumental welcome to pilgrims on Spanish soil.

Discover Tui

Tui is the solemn entrance gate to Galicia for pilgrims who walk along the Portuguese Way. Situated on the banks of the Miño River, just opposite the Portuguese Valença, this historic city offers a monumental welcome. Its signature is the impressive Cathedral of Saint Mary, which rises as a fortress over the city, a magnificent example of Galician Romanesque and Gothic architecture. For the pilgrim, arriving in Tui and sealing their credential in its cathedral is a symbolic moment, marking the beginning of the final stretch of just under 100 kilometers to Santiago. Its old town, declared a Historic-Artistic Ensemble, is a labyrinth of narrow streets and cobblestone alleys that invite getting lost, discovering churches, convents, and charming corners, such as the tunnel of the Clarisas. Tui is perfectly equipped to receive the walker with an extensive range of hostels and services. It is a city that breathes Jacobean history on all sides, an indispensable stop that immerses the pilgrim fully in Galician culture, landscape, and magic.
