From sculptures and engravings by Goya in the Museum of Fine Arts to anthropology and interactive science in the Casa de las Ciencias and the Domus, passing through ancient history in the Archaeological and Historical Museum of A Coruña, every corner of the city offers a unique and exciting opportunity to learn new things about the world around us.
We personally recommend the Estrella Galicia Museum, where you can enjoy a unique experience discovering the beer brewing process.


As with most port cities, the gastronomy of A Coruña stands out for its seafood, with fresh seafood from Costa da Morte as the star of the show. Enjoy typical dishes full of flavor, such as empanadas stuffed with tuna and cod and authentic Galician octopus, and dare to try the Padrón peppers (remember that some are spicy and others are not!). Don’t forget the Tarta de Santiago!
For wine lovers, there is nothing better than Calle de los Vinos, where you will find bars and restaurants for tapas and pairing your meals with wines from the five designations of origin in A Coruña, including the famous albariño. Drink in moderation!


A Coruña is the capital of Galician fashion par excellence. Birthplace of the Inditexgroup, the city exudes style from all corners, with national and international designer firms that have made A Coruña their centre of operations. Stop by the Plaza de Lugo and check out the latest trends of the season.


A symbol of the city, the Tower of Hercules is the only Roman lighthouse still in operation today, guiding sailors safely to the port. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the inside and discover its spectacular panoramic views from the top.
You can reach it by walking along Playa de las Lapas, following the 14 km of the A Coruña seafront promenade, considered the longest in Europe. In the opposite direction you will find the stone sculpture Ventana al Atlántico (Window to the Atlantic) and you can take a panoramic lift up to Monte de San Pedro, the city’s former defensive point and one of the city’s most impressive green areas.
Nor can you miss the Casa de Rosalía de Castro, the Ruta de Picasso and the Ruta de Casas Modernistas if you want to discover the most cultural side of A Coruña.


A Coruña’s leisure calendar is full of life, as shown by the many theatres and interpretation centres that host all kinds of performances every day. Proof of this are the Teatro Colón, the Teatro Rosalía de Castro and the Palacio de la Ópera, where you can enjoy theatrical and musical shows throughout the year. Why not book tickets and find out for yourself?


The magic of the Camino
The Camino de Santiago can start from anywhere in Spain or abroad, but it always ends in Galicia. From A Coruña, you can walk the Camino Inglés, the gateway to the Herculene city for pilgrims from the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Whatever route you choose, the Camino de Santiago is a spiritual experience that is worth doing at least once in your life. Enjoy the walk!
