Camino Photo of the Day: El Castillo Templario de Ponferrada

The first clear sight of the medieval city center of Ponferrada is the Templar castle. It is revealed in dramatic fashion. The Camino winds its way through narrow streets fronted with tall buildings, then turns a corner, and this is the sudden view. Back in 2013 we took a tour through the castle and spent several hours exploring its riches. Today, however, we moved on.

Note: There was no photo yesterday, due to the funeral of the Rev. Michael Wagner, priest of my parish church in Tacoma.

Date: 23 April 2016
Place: Ponferrada (Castilla y León, Spain)

Today’s maps!

Since Ponferrada is not our stopping point today, you get two maps.
