History

Das Kloster Santa María de Sobrado zieht Besucher aus ganz Galicien an und hat eine turbulente Vergangenheit. Als es im Jahr 952 erbaut wurde, war es San Salvador gewidmet. Im 12. Jahrhundert wurde es verlassen und dann von einigen frommen Gruppen bewohnt, bevor die Zisterzienser dort das klösterliche Leben begannen. Die Kirche wurde am Ende des 17. Jahrhunderts hinzugefügt und markiert den höchsten Punkt. 1834 wurde das Kloster - zusammen mit den meisten Klöstern in Spanien - durch königlichen Erlass seines Reichtums beraubt; ein Prozess, bei dem viele Schätze in den öffentlichen Bereich transferiert wurden, um die Staatsschulden abzubauen.

The Road

Der Camino verlässt Sobrado entlang der AC-934. Beim ersten kleinen Weiler, Ponte Pedra, verlässt er die Straße indem er links abbiegt, biegt dann aber fast sofort nach rechts, um einer kleineren Straße zu folgen. Sie werden durch die Dörfer Castro und Madelos gehen, bevor Sie Corredoiras betreten.

Nice cozy bunks with own plug and light, locker! Great kitchen and dishes for communal cooking! Supermarkets and dinner and breakfast options at earlier pilgrim dining times!!!

The Santander bank in Sobrado is gone. The cafés and bars in town (and the monastery) accept card, but 99% of the small cafes and bars between Vilalba and Boimorto do not - plan accordingly.

I, along with three other pilgrims, rented an apartment at Apartment Lecer, which overlooks the plaza. I booked it on Booking.com. We each paid €25, for a place that had four private rooms, two bathrooms, and a washer. I had to do a job interview via Zoom while we stayed there. The WiFi was amazing, and the host Stan even managed to find me an iron and an ironing board to iron my only shirt with a collar before the interview. The place was spotless and had a fully functional kitchen. It's a great and affordable alternative to other accommodation in Sobrado.

Abeiro da Loba is better, it is 5 km further than the Monastery. It is at the pilgrim way. It is the best.

Overseen by Brother Lawrence, the Monastery has a fully equipped kitchen with dining space for at least 50. Lacks only a microwave, for heating soup, etc. The albergue was completely renovated during Covid and is quite modern and very comfortable. €8.
