Hi,

have reached San Sebastián but still don’t have a certification card! I understand you can get them from buen pastor or the cathedral but I’ve visited both and have been unable to find anyone to talk to in either place- anyone got any advice?

many thanks,
Olivia 😊

opepper21,
To obtain your pilgrim Credential
perhaps tomorrow during working hours you might try the office of the Arzobispado de Donostia
within the Seminario Diocesano
Paseo de Hériz, 82,
20011 Donostia-San Sebastian, Gipuzkoa,

Good luck and Buen camino.

you should also try the Oficina de Turismo in San Sebastian, which is at Alemada de Boulevard 8, just over the bridge. Turismos usually have credenciales even if the cathedral doesn't, although sometimes albergues have them. Asking for a certification card may confuse people.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
