Santiago’s food market has a rural chic feel: traditional stores run by ladies from surrounding farms mixed with stylish stalls. Modernity and tradition really live in harmony in the Abastos area, with exciting new restaurants also opening their doors in recent years. Here, you will find some of Galicia’s best products.
This Monastery was founded in the ninth century by a group of Benedictine monks who settled in the city after getting news of the discovery of St. James’ remains. What you see today dates from the late-15th century, a powerful piece of baroque architecture, regarded as one of the most spectacular in Spain. Step up to the choir to see the staggering detail of the wood-carving and admire the altarpieces by the 18th-century’s architect Fernando de Casas Novoa.
Conceived as a portico or narthex of the Cathedral, the work sculptured by Maestro Mateo between 1168 and 1188 consists of three arches and more than 200 granite figures.
