The ritual of the end of the Way is marked by the pilgrim’s mass, celebrated daily at 12:00 am in the Cathedral of Santiago.<\/p>\n

An emblematic element of this religious structure, the largest and best known in the world – only used in holy years when July 25, Santiago Day, falls on a Sunday – is the popular botafumeiro<\/a><\/em>, a huge 53-kilo, 1.5-metre-high censer, bathed in silver. The purification ritual attributed to this symbol is performed by eight specialists who suspend it at a height of 20 metres, causing it to swing through the interior of the cathedral.<\/p>\n

Another emblematic ritual is the embrace of the Apostle, where his statue, resting on the crypt containing his relics, is embraced by pilgrims as a sign of closeness after all the pilgrimage effort or, for the most devout, this embrace means welcoming the Apostle into his home – similar to a ‘welcome’ ritual.<\/p>\n
