Baroque Compostela, 1750
The Romanesque core of Compostela has been newly dressed in Baroque granite: the Obradoiro façade’s twin towers now rise above the square and the Hostal dos Reis Católicos fronts the cathedral steps. This walk follows arriving pilgrims through the Porta do Camiño into narrow, wet granite streets, past monastic masses and the university courts to high viewpoints over the city.
36 scenes — 22 streets, squares and views, 14 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Santiago de Compostela as it stood in 1750 (“Santiago de Compostela”).
