Dear
Friends,
Ten million pilgrims are expected to travel to the
northwestern Spanish city to venerate the relics of St. James the Greater during
the holy year, which is held whenever his feast day (July 25) falls on a
Sunday. The shrine of Santiago de Compostela was frequented by
countless pilgrims from the ninth to the sixteenth centuries.
These are statements from the article linked

Do not miss the opportunity to visit Spain and enjoy
this breathtaking cathedral built over the tomb of St.
James. There are relics to venerate and beautiful Romanesque sculptures
to enjoy. Additional information pertaining to the shrine can be
