Colegiata del Sar

Reviewed By Leophant - San Juan, Caribbean

Although it was a wet, rainy afternoon, the unusual church- the inclined columns - made the trek worthwhile

Iglesia de Santiago

Reviewed By SMO2015 - Canada, null

As with many of the reviews, a must-stop along my Camino Portugués pilgrimage included the Iglesia de Santiago in Padrón. My self guided tour was an immersion into the history that included the significance Pedrón. The sister selling souvenirs and stamping sellos for the credencial was so friendly and welcoming. Worth exploring during your travels.

Monasterio e iglesia de San Pelayo

Reviewed By maury101

The monastery is an exquisite historical gem very close to the Cathedral and deserves to be better known. I would recommend it as a "must visit" on a visit to Santiago for pilgrims and anyone with an interest in church art . It was very quiet during our visit - perhaps because it is now used as a museum rather than a church. It is in the glorious baroque style and would have been the most important monastic building in all of the city. The view of the altar from the gallery overlooking the nave gives a unique perspective and there is a rich and rare collection of clerical and church pieces in the museum to see. Note: The building is over many floors so lots of steps, but there is a lift and adequate provision for people with reduced mobility who want to pay a visit.

Parroquia de San Martin de Noia

Reviewed By mouse-a-roo - Scarborough District, United Kingdom

This church is probably the most significant building in Noia with a lot of history associated with it. It was once the seat of the Arch Bishop, it has a similar portico to that of the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela etc. The bad news is that it is normally locked unless a service is about to take place. However, the main way to enjoy this building is from the Tapal square (which it faces) at one of the two bars adjacent to and facing it. They are da Pepa and the Tapal. In summer there are some fiestas that take place on this square in front of the church, e.g. the fiesta of the empanada (a kind of pie), and they also have outdoor cinema screenings there too. It makes for a great atmosphere.

Iglesia de Santiago Apostol

Reviewed By kopitravel - Vigo, Spain

The church of Santiago, near the Praza do Xeneral Azcárraga (Also worth the visit). Built in the 12th and 13th centuries, it is probably the oldest church in A Coruña and the beginning of English Way to Santiago.

Church of Santa Maria la Real del Sar

Reviewed By 227ianc - London, United Kingdom

When you walk into the Colegiata de Santa Maria la Real de Sar, you realise why there are massive stone buttresses on the outside. As you stand in the nave, you see that the columns are at various jaunty angles. So bad did the structure of the building move, that it was at one time proposed to be demolished, but fortunately it was consolidated and saved with the addition of the massive buttresses which are now so weathered that they almost look original. The church retains its 12th century Romanesque architecture, with stone capitals carved by Master Mateo who also worked on the Cathedral. The interior and cloister is well worth vising and there is an interesting new museum to visit before you go out to explore the cloister and the church.
