Roman tunnel of Barxa

Curiosity · A Gudiña, Viana, Ourense

Image of A Gudiña, not of the place itself.

A gallery some twenty-five metres long and four wide dug by the Romans to divert the River Pentes and leave dry a meander in which they were prospecting for gold and tin; it survives beside the hamlet of Barxa.
