Hello there!

I will be starting the Camino Primitivo on July 2nd (Sunday), arriving to Oviedo on the previous day, by bus, around 4:30pm.
As I would like that the first stamp on my credencial is the Cathedral's, do you happen to know if I can get a stamp there Saturday around 5:00pm or Sunday early in the morning?
Checking Oviedo's Cathedral website, they are closed for touristic visits on Sundays and open until 5:00pm on Saturdays. There is, however, a mass at 6:30pm on Saturday.
Thanks in advance. Bom Caminho!

In the past, I have been able to get a stamp on Sunday in the sacristy after Mass.

Hi El Cascayal, thanks for the feedback. The thing is, I have do leave Oviedo before Sunday's Mass, that starts at 10am. Maybe after Saturday's Mass I will deal it! Bom Caminho!

Saturday Vigil Mass is 5pm sorry corrected 6:30pm so you should have no problem. I see you say it is closed at 5 on Saturday, but this would mean closed for visitors because of Mass. So will be 'open' for prayer until after the eveneing Mass. Can you go straight there?
Buen Camino

Hi Timr, yes, as soon as I arrive to Oviedo Bus Terminal, I will head for the Cathedral, it's on the way to the hostel!
Bom Caminho!

Hi Francesinhus,
Did you manage to get your credencial stamped in the cathedral either late Saturday evening or early Sunday as I will have the same problem on my arrival this May?
I will arrive about 6pm Sat and was hoping to set off early on Sunday.
Many thanks
Scott
