Jaca

Jaca (50km):  this is the capital of the Jacetania area, a historic territory which extends across the north-western slopes of Aragon. It is home to the country's oldest Romanesque cathedral (11th century), built to bring the city together as a strategic enclave on the Camino de Santiago. It then became the first capital city in the early Kingdom of Aragon, chosen by King Sancho Ramírez (1077). Its border location led to it being used for defence for several centuries; architectonic evidence may still be seen, including the Ciudadela, the only 16th-century pentagonal fortress.

Xacobeo 2010

This Holy Year offers a unique opportunity to celebrate the Camino de Santiago as a place of pilgrimage and a meeting point for people of different nations that has become a symbol of fraternity over the centuries and a corner stone of an awareness of Europe, as affirmed by the Prince of Asturias Award for Concord won in 2004.

The Holy Year Xacobeo 2010 is very important as it symbolises the end of a cycle which has been particularly prominent for the number of pilgrims who have followed the Camino de Santiago over the years. Given the leap years, the Feast of St. James on 25th July falls on a Sunday every 11, 6, 5, 6 and then 11 years. So there won’t be another ‘Jacobeo’ until 2021.

In order to obtain the jubilee, all pilgrims must honour the three traditions:

• Visit the grave of the Apostle in the Cathedral and pray.
• Receive the Sacrament of Confession (either in the Cathedral or anywhere else, two weeks earlier or afterwards).
• Receive communion.

• Visiting the Cathedral while praying.
• Receiving the Sacraments of Confession (two weeks earlier or afterwards) and the Holy Communion.
