Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port

Pretty town nestled in the foothills of the Pyrenees and start of the Camino Francés - the most popular pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. There's an exhibition on the pilgrimage in the ominously named Bishop's Prison. For those interested in the Vauban-designed Citadel, there are guided tours in July and August Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port
