The filling of the Fervenza reservoir

Historical milestone · Mazaricos, Xallas, A Coruña

Image of Mazaricos, not of the place itself.

The closing of the dam on the Xallas flooded in 1966 valleys and farmland spread over thousands of plots in Mazaricos, Dumbría, Vimianzo and Zas, and forced a complete reordering of the farming life of the riverside villages.
