    Portomarin is the very location for today: - It is not a harbour, despite the name of "porto". - It is even not seaside, while called "marin". - Its several centuries old church has been built on 1962...

    Paul Garland has posted a notice on Facebook that the Portomarin Bridge will be close on 1 April for seismic stress testing. Pilgrims can cross the Mino on the lower Roman bridge but without their backpacks. The packs will be subject to a...
