Camino Photo of the Day: Arms in Villafranca

Personal coats of arms are ubiquitous in the towns and villages along the Camino, particularly on older houses. They don’t even really need to be grand houses. Some of them are quite beautiful, and rarely are they understated. Here are some of the examples we found as we walked through Villafranca del Bierzo. At some point when I walk with a better camera, I’ll have less fuzzy photos!
