Catholic Churches in Spain where you can make a Pilgrimage
There are some notable similarities between Catholic Churches in Spain and the Philippines, particularly in how almost every town has churches located near each other. However, unlike in the Philippines, where churches are often open throughout the day, most churches in Spain operate with horarios or specific opening and closing hours.
The churches in Spain are stunningly beautiful and majestic, but a sad reality is that only a few people attend Mass regularly, and the majority of those who do are older adults.
The purpose of this page is to appeal to the younger generation to appreciate our churches and, at the very least, provide information about specific pilgrim churches they can visit, especially during times when they feel the need to seek God’s presence.
