While in Lugo you can’t miss the Roman wall it’s great preserved as well great for a walk over the wall around the city centre. Nice is as well the Info panels with links to the history in all language.

The cathedral is an incredible building with its impressive baroque facade and is the culmination for some of a long journey along the Camino to reach Santiago. At the moment it’s best viewed from the outside only as there is major restoration work going on for holy year in 2021 when the work will be completed. It’s still worth visiting the cathedral museum which has some interesting artworks on display. You can also access the cloister and get views out over the square by the cathedral to the surrounding countryside. I’m sure it will be amazing when it’s done but currently the interior is literally a building site!

7. Castro's Fortress
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 295 reviews
In 1665, the Castro Fortress was constructed to protect the city from continuous attacks by the British Navy. During that time, the Castro, the San Sebastian Fortress and the city wall were a strong defensive system of the city. This defensive system was not very much effective because it couldn't stop hostile interventions. At present, the fortress has become a famous tourist attraction because of beautiful gardens, open spaces and superb views.

There are a lot of steps if you visit this spectacular fort directly from the town. The lower part of the climb is supported by some ascending escalators. The view from the top is worth the climb. The fort is very historic with its gun mountings and its ambiance of quiet and beauty, which belies its massive military presence over the anchorages and town. In addition the very old settlement dating from 3AD is also worth a view, but it may not be open when you get there. It is clearly visible from the road.

Being of Celtic heritage made this even more special. You can get right in amongst the stone huts and walled village. Even if the history is not your thing there are amazing views to the Atlantic and across the river to Portugal. Excellent visitor centre at top of the hill with free entrance and plenty of exhibits. Restaurants and cafes at reasonable prices too!
10. Castro de Viladonga
