Historic Squares and Parks

Pontevedra’s historic center is characterized by interconnected pedestrian squares and unique public art. This selection includes the 16th-century Renaissance Fonte da Ferraría and the expansive Island of Sculptures, an open-air museum on the Lérez River featuring contemporary works by Spanish artists. Visitors can explore local history through monuments like the statue of the mythical founder Teucer, the medieval-themed O Fiel Contraste, and the iconic Ravachol Parrot, a symbol of the city’s annual Carnival.
