– ARZÚA –
Good to know
Arzúa is recognized as the land of cheese. This protagonism is due to the D.O.P. Arzúa-Ulloa of the municipality of A Coruña.
Historically, the Codex Calixtino referred to this municipality as a key point for the construction of the Cathedral of Santiago for its ancient lime kilns.
At this point the north road and the French road meet. Arzúa is the last stage before Santiago.
One of the pilgrimage traditions is the one that takes place on the night of San Juan in the Wall of the stars.
Local landmarks
Chapel of Magdalena
This 14th century chapel was founded to cater for the arrival of pilgrims.
Galicia square
Arzúa’s point of reference is this square. Here you will find the Church of Santiago and several monuments such as Las Queseras.
Hermitage of La Mota
In the parish of Santo Estevo do Campo, hidden in the forest we find the miraculous 19th century hermitage.
