A Coruña Province, Administrative province in Galicia, Spain

The province stretches along the northwestern coast of Spain, featuring a combination of Atlantic beaches, deep coastal inlets, and mountain ranges inland.

The province formed in 1833 from sections of the former Kingdom of Galicia, developing into a maritime powerhouse with strategic ports like Ferrol and A Coruña.

Local festivals throughout the province celebrate Galician traditions with bagpipes, traditional dances, and seafood feasts reflecting the maritime heritage.

The province maintains strong transportation connections through its international airport, extensive road network, and railway system linking major Spanish cities.

The Tower of Hercules in A Coruña stands as the oldest functioning Roman lighthouse, guiding ships along the Atlantic coast since the 2nd century.
