Die kleine Kirche mit schönen Bemalungen lohnt einen kleinen Umweg.

⛪ Capilla de Ánimas – Santiago de Compostela Pequeña, solemne y llena de paz 🕯️. Construida en 1784, su fachada recuerda a las almas del purgatorio 👼🔥. Un rincón de silencio y oración en el corazón de la ciudad 💛. 📍 Rúa do Preguntoiro
