To explore the Region of Murcia, keep your feet on the
ground. With each step, you'll experience emotions that
elevate your spirit beyond the earthly.
The Region of Murcia is a focal point of Christianity,
evidenced by Pope John Paul II granting the privilege to
celebrate the Jubilee Year In Perpetuum in Caravaca
de la Cruz every 7 years since 2003. Thus, Caravaca
became the fifth city in the world to celebrate the
Perpetual Jubilee, together with Santiago de Composte-
la, Santo Toribio de Liebana, Rome and Jerusalem, the
next taking place in 2017.
The religious tradition of the Region of Murcia not only
dwells in every church and basilica: worship and fervour
are rooted in every corner, town and city. Discover
beautiful worship sites, places of pilgrimage, legends,
religious festivals and heritage of incalculable value.
