Its construction began in the 12th century, although in later times, especially in the 14th and 16th centuries, new spaces were added, until the ensemble we know today was completed, a mixture of Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque elements. In the upper part the towers rise, with three bodies and a pyramidal top. The main entrance has two pairs of columns with archivolts and a smooth tympanum. From here we access the chapel of Santo Cristo, with a rectangular floor plan and baroque aesthetics. It was built between the 17th and 18th centuries.

September 28, 2025,🇪🇸 Caminho Português - Tag 15 in Finisterre (Hotel Mar de Fisterra)

Due to the limited vacation time, we took the bus 🚌 from Santiago de Compostela to Finisterre. A wonderful fishing village at what was then the end of the world. A short hike from the village to the lighthouse. We didn't receive our certificate due to the bus ride, which is perfectly fine. Sunset at the end, we'll see.

Today I finally managed to go to the rocks behind the lighthouse to watch the sunset.
Luckily for me, no one else was interested in sitting down with the last pilgrim's boot.
I had already had a clear idea of what my photos would be like there, and it worked out well, apart from the clouds.
I even got the …
