Curiosity · A Fonsagrada, Fonsagrada, Lugo

Image of A Fonsagrada, not of the place itself.

The spring that gives the town its name has been identified with a Roman mansio, an official stop on the road that linked Lucus Asturum with Lucus Augusti, capital of Gallaecia; the Latin place name is thought to have given rise to the present one.
