Where to Find a Credencial in Ponferrada?

[jennyb]

Hi All, a friend and I will be walking from Ponferrada to Santiago next year - time away from responsibilities only allows us 2 weeks. I have a blank credencial which I bought last year while walking the Camino Frances (because it was pretty!). So I can use that, but my friend will need one. Does anyone know where we can get one in Ponferrada? Thanks.

You can get one in the pilgrims refuge in Ponferrada, but you can also get one whilst still at home: http://www.csjofsa.za.org/passport.php Perhaps preferable ;-) Buen Camino! SY

or you can, as I did, wake up the priest during Siesta and ask for help. He, very kindly ushered me into his office and after scrutinizing my filled up credential, provided me with a new one, stamped... and pointed to the donativo box.

At the Auberge, which is on the east side of the city, easy to find.
