    Discovering Sacred Geometry in Camino Art and Architecture: Free Online Meeting

    I will be attending this free hour-long online meeting by two experts on this topic and thought that others would enjoy it too.

    What historical evidence exists of Jewish influences on the Camino de Santiago?

    What you say is true, but David and Linda did meet on the Camino, and fell in love with each other as well as the pilgrimage stories of the Jews. I suggested it (no help to the OP, who I see asked in 2016) for anyone interested in the seeming mysterious answer to the question regarding Jews on...

    What historical evidence exists of Jewish influences on the Camino de Santiago?

    If no one else suggested it Pilgrimage and the Jews by David M. Gitlitz and Linda Kay Davidson may be a good resource for you. Buen Camino.
