Historical milestone · A Illa de Arousa, Salnés, Pontevedra

Image of A Illa de Arousa, not of the place itself.

The island recovered its own town council after having been a municipality in 1833, passing to Vilanova in 1873 and to Vilagarcía between 1935 and 1945; in 1934 it went so far as to proclaim an independence that lasted hours.
