Coimbra er den tredjestørste portugisiske by langs caminoen og tilbyder alle tjenester og adskillige overnatningsmuligheder, men endnu ingen pilgrimsspecifikke albergues ... bortset fra Santa Clara-klosteret på den anden side af floden.

Hvis du ikke overnatter her, så undgå fristelsen til at springe ruten gennem byen over; en smule udforskning er på sin plads. Afonso Henriques, Portugals første konge, blev født her og er begravet i Santa Cruz-klosteret. Det samme gælder for hans ældste søn Sancho I. Byen har to katedraler med navnene Sé Nova og Sé Velha. Den gamle er meget romansk, og den nye er barok og manieristisk og udsmykket med statuer af Sankt Ignatius, Sankt Aloysius Gonzaga, Sankt Frans Xaver og Sankt Frans af Borja. Helgenerne blev placeret af jesuitterne, der byggede (startede) kirken, men da de blev fordrevet fra Portugal, blev den til katedralen og blev færdiggjort med Peter og Paul som de vigtigste figurer.

Fiesta

Fyrværkeri den 4. juli til fejring af dronning Elizabeth af Portugal.

History

Coimbra var Portugals hovedstad i det 12. og 13. århundrede, den mistede sin betydning til havnebyen Lissabon, men fik i stedet University of Coimbra, som stadig er det ældste universitet i den portugisisktalende verden.

The Road

Hvis du gerne vil igennem Coimbra, skal du dreje til venstre efter at have krydset broen og begynde at følge flodstien. Den vil passere under motorvejen og derefter dreje til højre for at følge en kanal (på din venstre side).

Bliv på denne asfalterede vej gennem en rundkørsel, og snart vil du have en anden kanal på din højre side. Det forbliver en lige vej indtil lige før Adémia da Baixo, hvor den drejer til venstre. Kryds den tilgroede Rio Velho til højre ind i Adémia.

Vildsviner og knogler extraordinaire på restauranten Zé Manel dos Ossos i Coimbra. Bestil på forhånd eller ankomst godt før de åbner kl. 19:30. Kun 7 borde, men maden er fantastisk og servicen er glimrende

Havde en fantastisk sportsmassage med Luis Filipe hos A+Therapia i Coimbra. Det løste virkelig mine smerter og ømhed. Absolut værd at besøge

Et meget fint ophold for 2 nætter for 77 euro.
God køkken og badeværelser. Meget rent.
Beliggende på ruten mod Santiago de Compostella og Fatima

We came from Fatima by bus.
There is a great place right next to the station called Bus Station suites. It's about 23 euros, but has a kitchenette. It is directly on the camino route and just a 15 minute walk to the city centre.

I had a great pilgram massage at A+Terapia in coimbra - very professional with a great grasp of all things sports massage related.

I wrote a long yet fair comment about this albergue because we did not have a great experience there but it seems to have been deleted. I would not recommend this albergue unless you want the host in your business trying to mansplain and give you unsolicited advice at all hours of the day.

Great central location, clean new feel. Single beds, but they’re that close you might as well be in a double bed, especially if snorer beside you! Wi-Fi coverage was very poor

We arrived early because one of my family members had a knee injury and we wanted to leave our bags. The first man let us check in early and was very sweet and helpful. He wrote down our info and let us leave our bags.

When we came back later, a second man named Vitor greeted us and immediately made us re-write our information down saying that the police would come for us if any of the details were wrong. He also said we needed two stamps per day from Coimbra or we would be denied a Compostela (I’ve been told this is not true.)

Later, Vitor proceeded to hang about the common area and give the pilgrims lots of highly questionable, unsolicited advice about the Camino, injuries, blisters, footwear etc. It seemed like he wanted everyone to know how intelligent he was.

He did help one pilgrim with her sore knee by rubbing it with menthol cream. It was very sweet but also seemed to make her mildly uncomfortable.

He entered the room of all females without knocking and began to tell a physio that her professional opinion was incorrect. He should know because his family owns a clinic. He also mocked me for “being on my phone” even though I was booking accommodation for my family. This whole situation made the group of pilgrims very uncomfortable.

He was nice other than the mockery, conversational entrapment, unsolicited advice, uncomfortable lurking, and lack of boundaries.

The Albergue is simple but very beautiful with a lovely courtyard view of the Roman wall. The kitchen facilities were great and there were lots of sunny clotheslines to dry washing. The bed smelled like mold, but it was a very restful sleep for all. I would not recommend for female travelers as Vitor made us feel uncomfortable. I would not stay there again because I felt like I spent most of the day trying to avoid being sucked into Vitor’s incessant talking about himself.

Zero in hospitality When the pilgrims are already in bed, a man walks into the rooms, he has become aggressive when asked who he was and what he wanted. Zero respect for rest and privacy. I do not recommend it at all, it is worth spending a few more euros in a private one with respect for pilgrims and freedom of movement, they close the doors at 6:30 p.m. You can agree with them to enter at 9 or 10, then a man comes at the agreed time to open.
