Description
Arzúa is a small town in the province of A Coruña, Galicia, Spain. Historically, it has been an important stop for pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago due to its strategic location, where the Camino de Frances converges with the Camino Primitivo. This convergence has made Arzúa a melting pot of cultures and traditions, enriching its history. The town is known for its cheese production, specifically the "queso de tetilla," a creamy, mild cheese with a distinctive shape resembling a woman's breast. The cheese has been produced in the region since the Middle Ages and is still a popular local product today. Additionally, Arzúa is home to the Church of Santiago, a 12th-century Romanesque church dedicated to Saint James. The church is a significant landmark for pilgrims, as it symbolizes the nearing end of their journey to Santiago de Compostela.
