Pilgrimages to Santiago de Compostela have been undertaken since the 11th century. During the Middle Ages many routes were developed, which were followed by the people from the whole of Europe for their peregrinations to the relics of Saint James. The importance of the Sanctuary decreased in the 15th and 16th centuries. The 20th century saw the renaissance of pilgrimages to Compostela. This was ascribed to the pope the Blessed John Paul II. Currently thousands of people make the effort to walk to Santiago de Compostela to experience, like their predecessors, an encounter with God, to know themselves and the surrounding space. The reasons for the decision to venture on this peregrination differ widely and remain difficult to interpret. The article presents the initial results of a questionnaire completed by the pilgrims who reached Compostela in 2011.
