Kilometer Zero Marker, Muxía

Highlight • Monument

The Way of St. James (Camino de Santiago) ends in Muxía in its extension from Santiago de Compostela via Cabo Fisterra.

The pilgrimage route leads past the village on a pleasant footpath along the coast to the sanctuary of A Virxe da Barca (Our Lady of the Boat) which is situated at the head of the headland.

Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Boat

Highlight • Religious Site

The sanctuary is baroque in style with influences from classicism. The first written document that remains of the temple is from the year 1544. The chapel was rebuilt several times, until the current one was built at the beginning of the 18th century, in 1719, thanks to the donation of the Counts of Maceda, whose ashes are found in some tombs inside the sanctuary.

Der hat meinen Tag heute bestimmt. Er war gestern in der gleichen Herberge wie ich. Er saß bei meinem Eintreffen schon an einem Tisch im kleinen Restaurant und löffelte eine Suppe.
