Embark on a sacred journey through the heart of Iberia, following in the footsteps of saints, visionaries, and pilgrims who have shaped the faith for centuries. This 13-day pilgrimage begins in Lisbon, where St. Anthony of Padua was born, and continues through Fatima, one of the world’s most beloved Marian shrines. Pray where Our Lady appeared to the shepherd children and join the moving candlelight procession that has touched millions of souls.
Travel north to Porto and Santiago de Compostela, where the Apostle James rests and pilgrims from across the world complete their Camino. Experience the grace of the Eucharistic Miracle of Santarém, the mysticism of St. Teresa of Ávila, and the beauty of Salamanca’s Cathedrals. Journey onward to Madrid and Toledo, where art, history, and devotion meet in Spain’s spiritual capital.
Continue to Zaragoza, home of Our Lady of the Pillar — the first church ever dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, before concluding your journey in the mountains of Montserrat and the vibrant city of Barcelona, where you’ll visit Gaudí’s breathtaking Sagrada Família and celebrate your pilgrimage’s closing Mass.
With daily Mass, expert Catholic guides, and meaningful time for prayer, rest, and cultural exploration, this pilgrimage offers not only breathtaking beauty but also the opportunity for a deep spiritual renewal. Return home with a heart filled with peace and a soul strengthened in faith.
