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.
