Santiago de Compostela

Image of Santiago de Compostela, not of the place itself.

A tour de force by Domingo de Andrade in the convent of San Domingos: three independent helices, with single-piece steps held by an outer rib, that climb without ever crossing, and of which only one reaches the viewing gallery.
