Christian Cathedrals (Catedrais Cristãs)

In addition to being local daily worship centres, cathedrals were the centre of a lot of pilgrimages during medieval times. The most important pilgrimages to these places had specific routes with local overnight stay.


Além de locais de culto diário eram centros de numerosas peregrinações na época medieval. As peregrinações mais importantes a esses lugares possuíam itinerários específicos com locais de pernoita.
