The Town

Discover Ourense

Ourense, the thermal capital of Galicia, is a city that welcomes pilgrims on the Via Plata with a warm embrace and a rich heritage. Famous for its Burgas, mineral water springs bubbling up in the heart of the historic center, the city offers an unique rest experience. Its majestic Cathedral of St. Martin, with its air of fortitude and Paradise Portal, is a gem of Romanesque architecture. The Old Bridge, of Roman origin, continues to guide walkers over the Miño River. The old town of Ourense, known as "Os Viños", bubbles with life with its bars serving tapas, perfect for tasting local cuisine. It's an indispensable urban stop to revitalize body and spirit.
