Services

Iria Flavia is one of the most historically important sites on any Camino, though you wouldn't know it from the modern settlement. This was the original bishopric — the episcopal seat before it was transferred to Santiago de Compostela after the discovery of the Apostle's tomb in the 9th century.

The Colegiata de Santa Maria de Iria Flavia is the site of the original cathedral. The Adro (the cemetery and churchyard) is worth visiting — Rosalia de Castro was originally buried here before her remains were moved to the Panteon de Galegos Ilustres in Santiago.

The Camino:

Pass through Pazos, Rueiro, Tarrio and Vilar (albergue); none with services.
