Resumo

The role of the Associations of Friends of the Camino de Santiago is virtually unknown in research into the pilgrimage to Santiago. Their function is crucial for understanding the modern-day recovery of the Camino, its international fame and the conservation of many of the unique features along the way. In this paper, based on surveys and interviews, we analyse their current vision of the pilgrimage as well as their relations with public administrations and the Church. Their work, in direct contact with the pilgrims, means that they have a good knowledge of their needs, developing actions to support and guide the wayfarer. However, they are often not taken into account by the institutions that manage the Jacobean itineraries. We conclude by stating that the importance of these associations is fundamental for maintaining the dynamics of the route and that some obstacles must be overcome in order to maintain the central place they occupy in the Jacobean world.
