About
Capela Do Pilar, located on the south-western edge of Santiago de Compostela's Parque da Alameda, is a baroque architectural gem that captivates visitors with its distinctive features. The chapel's niche is shaped like a scallop shell, cradling a sculpture of the Lady of the Pillar, a nod to its historic and spiritual significance. Masses are held every Sunday morning and weekday evenings, known for their efficient 30 to 40-minute duration. Rated 4.4 on Google, many find its serene atmosphere uplifting. Though sometimes closed to visitors, the exterior alone is a striking spectacle worthy of admiration.

Situada en un precioso parque, esta una bonita capilla está construida en el estilo tradicional de la arquitectura gallega en granito.

Muy bonita, pequeña pero muy cuidada
