Conch shell, 1994 (Moncho Amigo, A Coruña, 1952)
It is the 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 inclement weather and the sea, which is why it has been recently restored. Like the Menhirs of Peace, the Conch has blended with the surrounding landscape of the Tower.

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