The Hórreo, an emblem of the northwest Iberian Peninsula, seamlessly blends practicality with rustic allure. Whether hewn from wood or stone, its raised design on pillars adorned with staddle stones showcases clever engineering, offering protection from pests while facilitating essential ventilation. These structures, known by various names like "Galician granary" or "espigueiros," carry profound cultural significance, echoing the agricultural traditions of the region. More than mere storage units, hórreos serve as poignant reminders of the enduring bond between humanity and the land, preserving stories of generations past within their silent walls.
