The Open Archaeological Museum is a natural space that runs for more than 10.5 km, through which there are seven archaeological spaces from different periods and typologies, selected from the great cultural wealth that is distributed throughout Carnota’s landscape, where around eighty archaeological sites can be counted.

The museum includes the petroglyphs of Prousos Magos, A Laxe Escrita, Rego Lamoso, O Afilladuiro and As Laxiñas; and also the Castro de Mallou and the Moorish Tower. All these spaces offer a route through history, from the Bronze Age to the present day. They reach a height of more than 300 m, from where you can enjoy the incomparable views of Carnota: its beach, almost 7 km long; the Faro de Fisterra, the Ría de Corcubión and Monte Pindo, protecting the surroundings.

​

The access to the different sites of the Open Archaeological Museum are properly signposted along the Senda Verde and also through information panels at the accesses, which facilitates the visit, as they enable the selection of different routes. The most prominent are those of Lira, Mallou, Carnota and Louredo.

 

The characteristics of this open-air museum allow you to take a route on foot or by bike at any time of the day, combining culture, tourism and sport.
