A shared area of universal values
Hospitality, the welcoming of the pilgrim is a value which for centuries has been considered the cornerstone of the Camino de Santiago. A form of spirituality poetically depicted in the photographs which Manuel G. Vicente took along the Camino, on the route and in hostels during recent decades. The heart-warming welcome is fused with the experience of the encounter, solidarity, friendship and mutual understanding. Added to this are the values of the landscapes, the shared history and culture.

An experience of communication and affection
As the days pass, communication at several levels occurs on the Camino. In the first place, the pilgrim communicates with himself, the interior language is essential in the pilgrimage experience. Introspection leads to reflexive, personalised self-construction, in which each person recreates his experiences through memory and affection.

In the second place, communication is established with the Camino itself and, finally, with the companions on the route, with the “hospitaleros” and the local people. The mental or spiritual space of the Camino de Santiago, evoked and recreated, is shaped through the affectivity of the person experiencing it; towns, cities, historical places and natural landscapes assume affective values in this spontaneous construction. A sensitive framework in which fertile communication takes place among the pilgrims, their natural environment and other persons.

MORE INFORMATION

The Camino de Santiago Associations of Friends are non-profit institutions found across the world that have worked for decades to conserve the Jacobean Route through the dissemination of its values and care of pilgrims.

These entities first emerged in 1950 in Paris, France. They were initially born as heirs to the old guilds of pilgrims to Santiago (also known as brotherhoods and fraternities) that extended across Europe between the 12th and 18th centuries with the aim of helping pilgrims on their journey to the distant destination of Compostela. By offering pilgrims their hospitals, information on the route, help, etc.; the brotherhoods altruistically supported pilgrims.
