The Offering to the Apostle is a ceremony instituted in 1643 by Felipe IV and throughout the years the tradition was maintained that Kings, heads of State or personalities with the highest responsibilities invoked divine benefits for human tasks from the Patron of Spain.

The National offering took place at the central nave of the Cathedral. Concluding the National Offering, King Felipe said, “Today, in the Cathedral where all roads converge and where the Apostle Santiago lives for eternity, we renew the offering of a people that want to be grateful. Towards Compostela, there runs a Way that collects the spirit of all those who exist since the beginning of time. Its strength to attract and comfort people of all ages, origins and motivations lies in the fact that the Camino de Santiago brings together the capacity of all paths and trails to create larger communities that make living together more intense and more fruitful”.
