History

Der Name der Stadt gibt einen Hinweis, dass sie ursprünglich von den französischen Gefolgsleuten des ersten Königs von Portugal besiedelt wurde.

The Road

Der Camino geht durch den Stadtpark und dann unter die N10. Von diesem Punkt an könnte der neue Camino mit der alten Route verwechselt werden. Kurz nach der Unterführung unter der N10 passiert der Camino eine kleine Fabrik und biegt dann nach rechts ab. Durch das Abbiegen nach rechts führt der Camino auf einem viel ruhigeren und sichereren Weg nach Vala do Carragedo.

HINWEIS: Die alten Pfeile, die den Weg über die stark befahrene Straße anzeigen, sind möglicherweise noch vorhanden.

It was worth waiting for a table at restaurante o retiro. Busy and really good atmosphere. Delicious meal and very friendly staff. We had a drink at the bar next door while we waited. Completely different but also nice in its own way, very friendly owners.

We stayed at the Lezeiria hotel, a lovely and comfy spot for a great nights sleep. Directions to leave this morning are a little confusing. Yesterday we walked the narrow N 10 and found it a little dangerous on some roads but hoping to jump back onto the new path, i will follow up after for more clarity

A very pretty and delightful town, lots of locals out catching up for coffee or a drink in the many outdoor (for this time of year) cafes. I seem to be the only pilgrim in town on this day, but found an amazing little restaurant, Maioral restaurant and bar, right next to Hopedaria Maioral, fabulous meal and lovely staff.

After a 40km walk from Lisbon on Day 1 of my Camino, it was wonderful to get into Villa Franca. Cute town worth an hour or so to wander around

Easy , but along with the factories and tomato fields. Not a lots of fun. Happy windy instead of heat.

Fair big local town without tourism. Charming with local well makeup ladies who were chatting and greeting each other on the street , in cafe in the morning. Very local fabrics.

I spent about 20 extra min just wandering the streets and don’t regret it for a second. Such a beautiful town with so much history.
