Santarém hat eine unglaubliche Anzahl gotischer Kirchen zu bieten, was angesichts der zahlreichen Erdbeben und der Napoleonischen Invasion beachtlich ist. Die besten architektonischen Beispiele (nicht alle gotisch) sind die Sé Catedral, der Convento de São Francisco, die Igreja do Santissimo Milagre (selbst ein Wallfahrtsort), der Torre das Cabaças (mit dem Zeitmuseum), die Igreja de São João de Alporão (mit einem ausgefallenen und leeren Grab für den im Kampf verschollenen Duarte de Meneses), und schließlich die Porta do Sol und die alte Burg von Santarem, die heute ein Stadtgarten ist und das Stadttor, durch das der Camino die Stadt verlässt. 

Fiesta

São José wird am 19. März gefeiert.

History

Santarém, die Hauptstadt der portugiesischen Gotik, wurde von Herrschern bevorzugt, seit Julius Cäsar im Jahr 61 v. Chr. hier ein Militärlager eingerichtet hatte.

The Road

Der Weg aus der Stadt kann schwierig zu finden sein wenn man nur Pfeile sucht und es empfiehlt sich, zu den Porta do Sol Gärten zu gehen, die Teil der alten maurischen Burg sind. Wenn Sie sich den Gärten nähern, befindet sich eine kleine Treppe auf der linken Seite. Gehen Sie diese hinunter zu einem kleinen Platz und die Porta de Santiago ist auf der linken Seite. Gehen Sie hindurch und nehmen Sie einen ungepflasterten Weg, der Sie um die alten Stadtmauern und hinunter zum Dorf Ribeira de Santarém führt.

Stayed last night. Dorms clean, each bed has plug, USB, light, table, curtain and lockable bag storage. Highly recommend! Lots of places available for breakfast in town. Had great Italian dinner at Amassa.

Stayed at Villa Graça. Nice hostel, they’ve a lamp, a socket and curtains near the bed so you’ve some privacy. I didn’t take breakfast because they do it quite late and otherwise you just get a tea and a juice the day before I think.

Great city which you must stay longer in and enjoy it! We stayed in Hotel Umu, which is clean and comfortable, but 2 km away from centre of the city, and that is very bad when you are walking a lot that day and just looking for a place to have a rest, even 2 km more count. Santarem is very lovely!

After three very strenuous days, I took a rest day in Santarem and highly recommend. Other pilgrims who went on hurt their feet. For very traditional and delicious Portuguese food, go to Taberna do Quinzena. For modern and high quality food, try out Eva (which is across the street from first restaurant mentioned). It was so good I ate their twice! Make sure to go to the viewpoint in Santarem and go inside the churches throughout the city. They let pilgrims pray silently and you see a lot of history that way.

The hostess was very attentive and helpful when it comes to the Caminho. I was booking through booking.com and didn’t know that the places I booked were actually in the next community on a few. She cleared it all up for me. The rooms are clean and secure. Very industrial modern architecture. There was a second floor rooftop deck to hang out. She even prepared a grab and go lunch for us.

Places to stay (Feb 2022): N1 is the only option in hostels at the moment, 20€, lovely host, she even prepares a picnic for the road, haha. Santarem Hostel seems not only closed, but closed down. Albergue Misecordia closed due to covid.

Santarem hostel is still open (March 2022), and the owner is delightful and very helpful. I was the only one who stayed the night I was there, but it was a great option. It’s close to several sites in the city and has a laundromat, cafes, and restaurants nearby. Check it out.

Nice and beautiful place to stay, the owner gives good advice about where to go and where to eat.
