Cantabria forms part of The Coastal Way of Saint James, the oldest of the pilgrimage routes to Santiago de Compostela.It includes the Monastery of Santo Toribio of Liebana which, from 1512, and by papal bull from Julius II, it was added to Jerusalem, Rome and Santiago de Compostela as one of the four locations of Christianity where the jubilee can be obtained by pilgrimage.Both this route and the Lebaniego Way pass through the same towns, therefore many pilgrims take the opportunity to obtain both jubilees.Unlike the others which are carried out at fixed intervals, the Lebaniego Jubilee is only held when the celebration for Saint Toribius, on 16th April, falls on Sunday.
