I’ve been to a store 2-3 times in the past several years that has every sew on patch imaginable. Over 100 types with routes, distances and years. It’s a small store, still inside the city center less than a km from the cathedral. Does anyone know the store? It is not any of the ones within 100M of the cathedral, and I think it is east of the cathedral, still on the cobble stone streets. I can not remember the name and have searched via google maps but can’t pin it down. Any help is appreciated.

Why not order it directly from Ivar or visit his shop close to the cathedral? I ordered mine in advance and picked it up there. https://maps.app.goo.gl/dDjQ7vFmrVM3X8Sc7

Are you looking for a particular patch?
Have you tried Etsy? TONS of Camino patches and other touristy stuff on there.

The store is on the same small plaza as Froiz Market . Google streetscapes is too dark to see a name.

Thank you. That location helps to narrow it in for me. I wanted to avoid a long search.

I found it after finishing our Ponferrada to Santiago de Compostela camino on March 2nd. I've been many times, and got a few of my favorite patches. It is loaded with every patch one could ask for, and the owner is a joy to see each time I go to Santiago. My new favorite patch is the Galicia one with the Eucharistic miracle, fitting in this year of the Eucharist! Thanks again, for your help.
