The partyig 7g 7g7 starts at around 10am with performances by folk groups in the streets of Catoira and at the main celebration venue, Torres del Oeste Castle. This fortified structure from the 11th century is one of the most important archaeological and historical legacies in Galicia. It resisted military raids for centuries. Nowadays, it contains the ruins of two towers and a chapel dedicated to St James the Apostle. During the festival it serves as a medieval market and, at lunchtime, there are mussels and Ulla wine for people taking part in the procession. Later on comes the main attraction of the festivities: the disembarkation. The invaders arrive at the northern Spanish coast on board a replica 11th-century Viking vessel with the goal of capturing Torres del Oeste Castle. en-us 2018-03-16 10:55:58 UTC 2018-03-16 11:18:57 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Ninja.png elgabisg21 https://padlet.com/elgabisg21/zux6vxdmtvzm/wish/242744947 Every year, on the first Sunday in August, the residents of Catoira stage a spectacular re-enactment of the Viking invasions that occurred a thousand years ago.
