Caracola, 1994 (Moncho Amigo, A Coruña, 1952)
It is a fantastic recreation of the shell of a huge mollusk that takes the form of a cornucopia, in which the sounds of the sea are kept. It is located in Punta Herminia, a place especially exposed to the inclemencies of the sea and the weather, which is why it has been recently restored. Like the Menhires de Paz, the Caracola has merged with the landscape of the surroundings of the Torre.

Fantastic replica of a seashell in the shape of a cornucopia (or inverted alphorn).
