The Church of Santa Mariña in Sarria has a rich and fascinating history. It was built in the 12th century, during the rise of the Romanesque style in Galicia. The church is dedicated to Santa Mariña, a Christian martyr who is highly venerated in the region.Over the centuries, the church has been an important reference point for pilgrims walking the Camino de Santiago, as Sarria is one of the most popular stages of this route. The church has undergone several restorations and modifications over time, but still retains original elements of its Romanesque architecture, such as its decorated arches and capitals.

The old casino of Sarria is in the Camino de Santiago. It was reformed back in 2015, after more than 26 years of abandonment, when this society disappeared. Today, that historic building is a hostel with a bar in which some elements of that building are still preserved and which neighbors remember with nostalgia. bigjoe.es
