Castro de Borneiro

After being discovered in 1924 by Isidro Parga Pondal and Pérez Bustamante, excavations began in the 1930s, led by Sebastián García-Paz, and were resumed by Jorge Juan Eiroa in the 1970s.

Multiple fragments of autochthonous ceramics, bronze and iron vases, stone walls, melting casts, glass bead, etc.

In addition to the main enclosure, there is an area known as the extra-mural district, which coincides with the entrance to the castro.

This second collection consists of a great oblong dwelling, two fountains with drains and a circular oven, which, during its time, must have been covered by a dome.

The dwellings are circular or rectangular with rounded corners, and stand out in comparison with those of other sites because of their great size.
