Why visit Orense?
Because Orense, besides being the third most populated city in Galicia, has an extraordinary heritage. It was founded by the Romans, who probably named it Auriense, a term that refers to the amount of gold that the area possessed. The bridge over the Miño river dates from this period, which was rebuilt in the 12th century, giving it its current appearance.
It is also important to visit its numerous religious buildings, such as the Cathedral of San Martin, the Church of San Francisco, the Church of the Holy Trinity and the Sanctuaries of Our Lady of the Hermitages and Our Lady of Miracles. The city also has the Castelo Ramiro, the Liceo de Orense and the Museo Arqueolóxico de Orense.
The capital is known for its thermal waters, which you can enjoy in Las Burgas, the Pozas de A Chavasqueira, the Manantial do Tinteiro, the Burga do Muíño and the Burgas de Outariz.
The province of Orense is the only one without coast of the Galician community, so its gastronomy is based more on meats, wines and desserts. Do not leave the city without tasting a Galician stew, androlla or almendrados de Allariz. Accompany all this with a good wine. Remember that Orense has four Designations of Origin: Ribeiro, Valdeorras, Ribeira Sacra and Monterrei.
