Description

Itero de la Vega is a small village with a rich history along the Camino de Santiago. It is located in the province of Palencia, in the autonomous community of Castile and León, Spain. The name "Itero" is derived from the Latin word "iter," meaning "route" or "way," which highlights its importance as a stop on the pilgrimage route. Historically, Itero de la Vega was a significant resting point for pilgrims due to its strategic location near the Pisuerga River. The village is home to the Church of San Pedro, a Romanesque-style building dating back to the 12th century. This church features a beautiful apse adorned with intricate carvings, which has been well-preserved over the years. Additionally, the village has a pilgrim's hostel and a few local amenities to cater to the needs of modern-day pilgrims. The surrounding landscape of Itero de la Vega is characterized by vast cereal fields, which have been cultivated for centuries and contribute to the region's agricultural heritage.
