Neoclassical Catholic temple built between 1766 and 1872 on the remains of the old Romanesque church and designed by the architect Julián Sánchez Bort. The plan of the temple is a Greek cross, organized around a central dome supported by Ionic pillars with naves covered by cylindrical vaults, and with its four corners with chapels covered by vaults. The main façade is made up of two superimposed bodies, with two towers on both sides. By bull of Juan XXIII in 1959 it reached the category of co-cathedral of the Mondoñedo-Ferrol diocese

Impressive work of architecture, it is a temple with beautiful carvings and reflects a beautiful splendor, it is very bright and at the same time very solemn, frankly charming from the artistic point of view, and from the spiritual point of view it is brand new, to enter it, It already gives a feeling of peace and security at the same time, in short, for those who visit the city it is a highly recommended point and cannot be overlooked.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
