Pontevedra hides a large number of dark stories and mysteries among its small streets. Meet the most famous people who make up its popular memory and discover why Galicia is called “land of meigas.”
We will begin by learning about the curious story of the Loro Ravachol and from there we will enter the most medieval Pontevedra to discover the place where people sick with the plague were locked up, we will observe where the old prisons were or what are the well-known “pilaries” that were used for the condemned.
We will continue among the stories of the famous gargoyles of the church of Santa María la Mayor and we will walk among the numerous crossroads, where we must be very careful with the Santa Compaña and that is why these places are full of the well-known “Cruceiros” or Stone Crosses.
But not only that, this city could not lack stories related to pirates and mermaids. We will learn the story of one who became very famous and we will see where his treasure could be hidden.
This will only be for the bravest!
