폰페라다의 '기사단 성'은 가장 잘 보존된 사례 중 하나로, 12~13세기의 성 생활이 어떠했을지 엿볼 수 있는 곳이에요.

이글레시아 데 산타 마리아 데 라 엔시나 성당은 참나무 줄기에서 마리아의 형상이 발견되었다는 기사단 전설에서 유래한 이름입니다. 성 근처 마을에서 가장 오래된 지역에 위치해 있습니다

Fiesta

토요일은 장날입니다. 9월 8일에 시작되는 는 엘 비에르조의 수호성인인 (참나무)를 기념하는 축제로 일주일간 계속됩니다.

History
강과 강)이 만나는 지점에 위치한 폰페라다는 한때 로마의 가장 중요한 정착지 중 하나였어요. 그 이름은 원래의 다리 건설에서 유래되었습니다. 1082년에 지어진 이 다리는 철로 장식된 최초의 다리 중 하나로, '폰스 페라타'는 '폰페라다'가 되었습니다. 원래 다리는 더 이상 존재하지 않습니다.
The Road

에서 나오면 성을 지나 구시가지를 잠시 지나 다리를 건너게 됩니다. 다리 끝에서 우회전하세요. 길은 왼쪽으로 굽어지고 다음 큰 교차로에서 우회전합니다. 첫 번째 로터리를 지나 직진하고 두 번째 로터리에서 우회전하세요. 여기서부터 카미노는 공사 중인 임시 표지판을 따라가게 됩니다.

Had an incredible time visiting the winery. Can garriré walking or by bus. Met with Milagros and had a tour, tasting 4 wines with food, $40. Worth it!! You can book online or email them. They’ll also do a pilgrim deal for 2 wines and a tour — $25. Loved my time, Milagros is great.

Great prices, and a huge spring discount right now. Call Elena — +34 646365272 before you arrive in Ponferrada and book a treatment. If you take a rest day here, prioritize it. Short bus ride to her studio from the Castle area. Easy! She may travel to your albergue also for foot massage.

The Castillo is closed Mondays, and open 10-2pm or 430-830pm. Free on Wednesdays for everyone and $4 for pilgrims other days. The Albergue Alea with owner Amelia is a precious place to stay. They treat you like true family. Amazing. Delicious dinner. Lovely people. They allow pets, rest days if they have space, and are such good hosts that it’s like being with your grandparents. A 10 min walk from city center but really worth it.

In Ponferrada if you want to shake it up and have some spice, try PANDORA THAI RESTAURANT!! I had the green curry there yesterday, and it was fabulous!! Nice atmosphere with very friendly staff!!

On the way into Ponferrada you’ll pass this spot. Unfortunately it wasn’t open when I went by bc of a public holiday, but it looked pretty shmick and modern.

Everything was closed due to “vacation” while we were here. We ended up at Domino’s Pizza for dinner and were truly grateful!

I had the best pilgrim menu since the whole Camino Frances started at Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port. The restaurant owns two passionate and lovely pilgrims from Tirol and they really know what pilgrims need. All fresh ingredients, freshly cooked food and a good wide enough selection, also a good vegetarian menu. And just for 14,90 for the menu. And they're open for a good talk in Spanish :)

There is a wonderful festival going on in the city through September 7

I researched several of Ponferrada's best bars when I was updating the 2024 Lonely Planet Spain guidebook... and others too when I was making the trek that featured in my latest book - 'Vagabond: A Hiker's Homage to Rural Spain'.
La Bodega de Godivah (on the road facing the castle) is perhaps the best place to grab a beer and a snack and enjoy some pleasant people-watching.

On another note, there is a huge Decathlon just a kilometre from here that is fantastic if you need equipment for the mountains. After my 1,225km hike from Gibraltar I was in dire need of new hiking socks...and thermal underwear for potentially sleeping-rough in the mountains.

The gal that runs this shop is so kind and helpful, highly recommend stopping there for replacement clothes or equipment
