On my 8th camino I was finally able to visit the church and see this altarpiece which dates from 1908 .

Roncesvalles monastery web
This print depicts Charlemagne mounted finding Rodan/Roland dead August 778 near Roncesvalles on what will be later known as the Valcarlos...
Today thirteen years ago. Camino Frances 2011.
Almost finished my first etapa of my first Camino from Roncesvalles to Zubiri.
Also on this day in 2013, 2014 and 2018 I walked parts of different Spanish Caminos.
I love April for walking.

This was a welcome sign within a dense wood but the actual path was neither visible or easy to find!
