Santo Domingo de la Calzada

Santo Domingo de la Calzada occupies a riverside position on the Oja River in La Rioja. It is a key stop on the Camino Francés, the historic pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, and its streets still reflect the town’s role in sheltering and guiding travellers. The cathedral is known for its Gothic tower and for keeping a live rooster and hen, a tradition tied to a medieval pilgrims’ legend. Stone arcades, the old pilgrims’ hospital and the road towards nearby Rioja vineyards give the town a distinctly wayfaring character.
