Credencial in Astorga?

I will be starting in Astorga on Sept. 7th & want to know where I can get a compostela? I won't be arriving until late the night before, so I will need to get one when I first begin walking. Any info would be helpful.

Re: Compostela in Astorga?

Dusty,

No need to wait until your arrival in Astorga. In the United States you can have a Credential mailed to you in advance from the American Pilgrims on the Camino Fraternity. Go to http://www.americanpilgrims.com. There is no charge although you can join the fraternity or any donation is welcomed.

By the way, I assume you mean Credential rather than Compostela. The Compostela is only issued in Santiago de Compostela upon presentation of your Credential bearing appropriate stamps from the Camino.

Buen Camino

And, if necessary, in any Albergue in Astorga.

Buen Camino, enjoy it.
