Photo Print: Nosa Señora do Faro by Carlos F. Turienzo

Not as well known as other places on the Coast of Death, A Nosa Señora do Faro is a chapel located on a small mountain between Corme and Ponteceso villages. As in other areas of Galicia in this place there are many traditions and beliefs, as an ancient ritual practiced by sailor's wifes called "twist the roof tile", it consisted of rotating a roof tile of the chapel to change the winds or to stop raining during storms, so that the sailors could come back home. Next to the chapel there is a 39m tower, El Sagrado Corazón de Jesús, with a spiral staircase of 133 steps inside, you can climb them and enjoy the magnificent views or feeling the movement of the tower on windy days.
