Jacobean Salamanca
Jacobean Salamanca
This phrase refers to the historic links to the Way of Saint James (Camino de Santiago) and
Salamanca, the city and province, from the earliest beginnings of the pilgrimages to Santiago de
Compostela.
Towards the end of the 11th Century, precisely because it was leaving behind it a long period of
conquering and then re-conquering and had started on its stage of Christian resettling, Salamanca
became a meeting place for pilgrims coming from the southern half of the peninsula, mainly the
Mozarabics from Toledo and Caceres.
This religious, cultural and nomadic tradition consolidated its position in the first half of the 12th
Century and grew further following the taking of Seville and Cordoba by Fernando III in the 13th
Century, and then again with the conquest of Granada by the Catholic Kings in the 15th
Century. Pope Calixto II (12th Century), well versed in the Jacobean routes and a devout
follower of the Apostle, annexed Salamanca to the headquarters in Santiago.
Archbishop Fonseca is another interesting link that connects Salamanca and Santiago de
Compostela. He was a powerful patron and a vehement believer of Renaissance thinking
in both cities. The southern route of the Way of Saint James thus acquired new stops
along its route which made it much more popular during the 15th and 16th Centuries.
The mixture of Jacobean symbolism and the coat of arms of the Fonseca family began to
appear on the magnificent buildings that were built during this period, the highlight of
which are the Fonseca Colleges in Salamanca and Santiago.
The ideals of Fonseca would soon be copied by other intellectuals of the time, such as Saint Toribio
of Mogrovejo, a pilgrim and student of Salamanca, Coimbra and Santiago as well as professor in
Salamanca, the second archbishop of Lima (Peru) and Patron Saint of Latin American Bishops.
To mark the naming of Salamanca as the 2002 European City of Culture, the
idea was put forward to re-launch this rich Jacobean tradition, which led to
its development. Salamanca and Santiago also share certain characteristics,
as well as certain awards. They are both exceptional university cities and over
the past couple of decades have become designated 20th Century World
Heritage Sites by UNESCO as well as
European Cities of Culture by the
European Union.
The Mozarabic routes to Santiago
Jacobean tradition is Salamanca finds its roots in the Mozarabic pilgrims and their
routes:
The Way of Saint James via the Vía de la Plata or Silver Route.
The Fonseca Route (from Salamanca to Santiago de Compostela).
Both these routes were derived from the Via de Plata, which, since it was built in
Roman times, has contributed to linking the northern peninsula with the southern
one, making it an essential route during the centuries and currently too. It has
facilitated cultural, religious, trade, cattle exchanges (such as transhumance),...
The Fonseca Route starts in Salamanca and continues along a stretch of the Vía
de la Plata. It moves away in the Province of Zamora and heads into Galicia
joining the Orense route. It is renowned for its hospitals and its abbeys, for its
connection to the Portuguese routes of Braganza and Chaves and by its ever
changing landscapes.
It was along this route that Almanzor, after once again taking Salamanca, reached
Santiago in 997, and took the bells back to Córdoba with him. The route was also
the stage for the return, marking the rebirth of the Mozarabic pilgrimages from
Córdoba to Santiago in the 13th Century.
The importance of the Mozarabic routes become more marked with the
conquering and re-conquering of the Christian Kings and the Muslims in
Extremadura and Andalusia. And if the French Route is the great European
Jacobean Route, the Mozarabic routes are considered to be the great peninsular
Jacobean routes.
