The city of Albacete yesterday pledged to make visible the route of the Camino de Santiago that crosses the city from Valencia and Alicante, as well as starting to consider giving a shelter for pilgrims to stay overnight.
Following a meeting with the councilors Urban Mobility and Tourism, Francisco Ortega Navarro and Cesareo, respectively, the Friends of the Camino de Santiago de Albacete Albacete Jacobea Association committed to sharing the route of the path Southeast, leaving from Valencia and Alicante to merge from Chinchilla Montearagón Albacete.
And in his first contact with the government team, each association presented its views on the passage of this route, which will start at the entrance of Albacete Chinchilla and end at the exit of the capital to the genet.
Once the route has been agreed by which this road runs inside the capital, both associations will meet again with the municipal government to determine the signs will be placed to inform the pilgrim who has decided to opt for the path of the Southeast .
Arrows and shells
This is the famous arrows and shells with which has always linked the existence of the Camino de Santiago, tiles and material available to the Consistory the same associations Jacobean, so this signal is held at zero cost for municipal coffers.
The main goal of both groups is to make "visible" the way "invisible" that crosses the capital Albacete, through acquaintances tiles and even with information panels to guide pilgrims where to follow the route out of the city and move to the province of Cuenca. In this regard it should mean that the friends of the Camino de Santiago are well aware that a pilgrim wants to know what is clearly indicating that the direction of the path to get out of town and, if any, the location of a shelter .
Specifically, after defining the layout and install informative signs, associations linked to this pilgrimage route are willing to undertake the management, maintenance and cleaning of a shelter, for what yesterday asked the council and the assignment of a space that can meet logical characteristics of a hostel for pilgrims. Important is to note that this hostel, where the City Council has space available, must be traced over to make it much easier to locate and access.
In recent years, Jacobean routes or branches are gaining much height to occur mass of pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago French. Not surprisingly, in a few years, the Way of Southeastern happened to record some twenty five hundred pilgrims, thereby demonstrating that more and more pilgrims passing through this city and headed for Santiago de Compostela.
