The oldest town in Galicia, A Coruña is mentioned in Irish myths regarding a Celtic hero by the name of Breogán, who came to the Iberian coast and built a tower here. The famous lighthouse –Torre de Hércules– dates from the Roman period. The town has been an important comercial port for centuries.

This attractive town is on the estuary of the River Eume, south of the Ría de Ares. The Ponte do Eume,which gave rise to the town's name, was until recently the largest and widest bridge in Galicia.

The Monastery of Saint John of Caaveiro (Mosteiro de San Xoán de Caaveiro) is a Spanish monastery founded in the 10^th century by Saint Rudesind.
