Museum of a Emigración a Guinea Ecuatorial

Monument · Quintela de Leirado, Terra de Celanova, Ourense

Opened in December 2021, it documents a little-known migratory current: the departure of people from this comarca towards Spanish Guinea, the old colony in the Gulf of Guinea. It is one of the few museums devoted exclusively to that emigration and a museum rarity in a concello that does not reach six hundred inhabitants.
