Faro de Fisterra

Although there are many emblematic places to be found in Galicia, the Finisterre lighthouse is one of the best known. Located in the municipality of the same name, in the province of A Coruña, it is a lighthouse that has been visited by thousands of people since its construction in 1853, as it is located at Cape Finisterre, known worldwide for being the "end of the world". Closely linked to the Camino de Santiago and its pilgrims, this lighthouse is located on the furthest point of Cape Finisterre. In Roman times this place was known as the end of the world, in Latin finis terrae, a denomination from which the name of its locality was born. It was thanks to this that this place is known all over the world, a popularity that is also transferred to the Finisterre Lighthouse.
