Castrojeriz guide

Castrojeriz is a historic locality on the Camino de Frances, known for its rich history and impressive castle ruins. The town dates back to Roman times and was later occupied by the Visigoths and Moors before being reconquered by the Christians in the 9th century. The Castle of Castrojeriz, situated on a hill overlooking the town, was built in the 9th century and played a significant role in defending the area during the Reconquista. Throughout the Middle Ages, Castrojeriz became an important stop for pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago due to its strategic location and the presence of several religious institutions. The Church of Santa María del Manzano, built in the 13th century, is a notable example of Gothic architecture and contains a revered statue of the Virgin Mary. The town also has several other churches and monasteries that served as shelters and hospitals for pilgrims, such as the Convent of San Antón, which was founded in the 12th century by the Order of Saint Anthony.
