Benedict XVI will arrive in Galicia next Saturday, November 6, 2010.

And he will do so as a Pilgrim of the Faith, being the second Pope in history to visit the capital of Galicia owing to Compostela's Jubilee Year. This already memorable date will join now in Galicia’s history those of November 9, 1982 (Jubilee Year) and August 19-20, 1989, when John Paul II honoured us with his presence in Galician land in a mass welcome, still quite remembered.
