Description

Morgade is a small locality in the province of Lugo, Galicia, with a rich history related to the Camino de Santiago. The area has been a resting point for pilgrims since the Middle Ages, providing essential services and shelter for those making their way to Santiago de Compostela. The rural landscape of Morgade is characterized by lush greenery, rolling hills, and traditional Galician architecture, including ancient stone houses and hórreos, which are typical raised granaries. Historically, Morgade was part of a larger network of villages and hamlets that supported the pilgrimage route. The local economy was largely based on agriculture, and the presence of pilgrims provided additional income for the inhabitants. Over time, the importance of Morgade as a stop on the Camino de Santiago has diminished, but it still retains its charm and historical significance. Today, modern pilgrims can find a small albergue and other services in the village, allowing them to rest and recharge before continuing their journey.
