The spectacular Villafranca del Bierzo is an open-air museum that summarizes centuries of history of the Camino de Santiago.

Immerse yourself in the Jacobean atmosphere of the Puerta del Perdón in the church of Santiago, but don't leave aside the convents, churches, the castle or the solemn Cluniac collegiate church. The streets and squares transmit spirituality and contain amazing relics, pantheons and works of art.

The gastronomy of El Bierzo is characterized by having its own identity. Elaborations such as Botillo del Bierzo, empanada de batallón or lacón with peppers and for dessert delicacies such as chestnuts in syrup, chestnut cake, feisuelos or frisuelos or conference pears in wine are just some of the proposals that this land makes you and will make you remember your visit to El Bierzo.
