Cape Ortegal Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

The Cape Ortegal Lighthouse as an infrastructure is not entirely impressive and this must be said. It is a simple cylindrical tower about 13 meters high made of concrete, with a red stripe that stands out, and which was built from 1984 by engineer Jaime Arrandiaga.

Cape Ortegal Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

A mystical place in one of the northern tips of Galicia. We were lucky enough to be able to listen to a gaita player (=Galician bagpipes).
