It's interesting how we are all different. I personally love the stretch from Acebo down to Molinaseca, but I have good knees. The village inbetween is lovely, views are gorgeous, mostly all natural trail, and I loved the layering of blue slate underfoot at times. I hope they don't make any "improvements".Thanks for sharing this news Peter.
I wonder if they will have any money left to improve the trail from Acebo down to Molinaseca? That project alone would probably cost most than 92 million.
I also wanted to publicly thank you for volunteering at the Pilgrim Office every year. It is folks like you that make the Camino worthwhile.
Buen Camino.
Sadly not a return to the days when pilgrims arriving could ascend the stairs, walk through the cathedral's main entrance and catch their first glimpse of the interior in the way which the cathedral's architects intended.
Thank you for your volunteerism, Peter.El Estado invertirá 92 millones para impulsar el Camino de Santiago hasta el 2024
El delegado del Gobierno hizo el anuncio durante la visita a las obras de la escalinata de la catedral e indicó que se constituirá una comisión de trabajowww.lavozdegalicia.es
sorry, this is not what the article says at all.I am not fluent enough in Spanish to read the article directly and am relying on Google Chrome's translation. From what I read it appears to say that at the end of the renovations the gates will still remain locked and the staircase inaccessible.

We need help from someone who is fluent in Spanish and also knows the architecture, which I don't. My auto-translation saysFrom what I read it appears to say that at the end of the renovations the gates will still remain locked and the staircase inaccessible.
I think, the mentioned south tower is the tower towards the Praza das Praterias. And Lorenzo talked about the staircase from the crypta to this tower. If he was talking about the crypta with the tomb of Santiago then this can only mean the little stairs up to the the main floor of cathedral which leads to the south.In the same package the restoration of the crypt is included, and an attempt will be made to recover the staircase that leads from it to the south tower.
Will you please enlighten us then???sorry, this is not what the article says at all.
Wow, Chrissy, those pix are lovely!It's interesting how we are all different. I personally love the stretch from Acebo down to Molinaseca, but I have good knees.

I got a bit carried away here with my photos.☺

@Fozycrozy, perhaps you did not notice the date? You replied to a post about a news article that is nearly three years old.Given the current economic crisis in Europe, I think the restoration will be suspended.
