An illustrated talk about the Camino de Santiago, an ancient European pilgrimage route, will take place at St John's Church, Buxton, on June 6, at 2.30pm. It will be presented by Gill Williamson,a local resident who has walked and studied the Camino.
The talk will be in two parts. The first will tell the story of the many people who caused the Camino to come into existence and who developed it over the centuries. The second part will be a less formal presentation giving insights into walking the Camino in the 21st century.
The Camino de Santiago (the Way of St. James) is an extensive network of ancient pilgrim routes stretching across Europe and coming together at the tomb of St. James in Santiago de Compostela in northwest Spain.Tickets for the talk can be obtained from 01298 77856 10am - noon Mondays to Thursdays or email [email protected] cost is £8 including refreshments.
