EP-235 SAINTS, SINNERS AND PILGRIMS: The Story of the Camino de Santiago


Listen Later

The Camino de Santiago isn’t just a walk — it’s a 1,200-year-old tradition that has shaped European history, faith, and culture.

In this fascinating episode, Richard is joined by Eva Schubert, host of the Villains and Virgins Podcast, to explore the real history of the Camino de Santiago. Eva dives into how this world-famous pilgrimage began, how it evolved through plagues and reformations, and why it continues to captivate hundreds of thousands of modern-day pilgrims every year.

From the discovery of Saint James’s remains in 9th-century Spain to the influence of medieval trade, Muslim culture, and even marketing in modern times, this conversation uncovers the rich layers of meaning behind one of the world’s greatest walks.
