[Gocamino] Obtaining the credencial in Oporto, Portugal

[Grant Spangler]

Many of us route through Madrid on our way to the Camino. I've gotten my credenciales at the Catedral de la Almudena as I acclimate to Spain. I also seem to get every sello at every bar and verily, I use up more than one credencial. The number two passport I acquire in Roncesvalles or another Camino ciudad .. before that last space has been filled ..

On the bottom left of the map is an area outlined in red. On the left you see a green area, the Campo del Moro, right next to it is the Palacio Real, just beneath that is the Catedral de la Almudena. There is a door on Calle Bailen for the Arzobispo de Madid. Walk through that door and ask the girl at the reception desk for the guy who does the Credenciales. 


Buen Camino,

Grant
