Carballo, Municipality in A Coruña Province, Spain

Located in northwestern Spain, Carballo extends across an area with an elevation of 106 meters and includes eighteen distinct administrative parishes.

The municipality of Carballo, established in 1836, developed significantly during the 1940s due to the exploitation of tungsten resources in the region.

The territory contains numerous megalithic structures, including the Pedra Moura dolmen and multiple archaeological sites from the Castro culture period.

The municipality functions as a market center for agricultural products, particularly cereals and dairy, while maintaining connections with major Galician cities.

The thermal springs of San Juan de Carballo, situated across the Allones River, contain sulfurous waters that retain medicinal properties.
