Itero de la Vega

Itero de la Vega is a small town on the Camino de Santiago in the province of Palencia of the Autonomous Community of Castile -Leon.

The name of the village stems - like that of the adjacent village Itero del Castillo and the near Puente de Itero - from the former border situation to the county of Castile. Itero comes from Hito - landmark, which in turn from Latin petra ficta - back rammed into the ground (marginal) stone. So, while on the other side of the county Pisuerga Castile ended - today Burgos - entered the traveler with Itero de la Vega the first place the Tierra de Campos. In the Crónica Albeldense this landscape is as Campi Gothorum - Gothic mentioned fields, today is the village in the province of Palencia.
