Santuario da Virxe da Escravitude, Catholic pilgrimage church in A Escravitude, Spain.

The sanctuary features two symmetrical towers and stands near the Portuguese Way of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route in Padrón municipality.

The construction of the sanctuary began after a miraculous healing in 1732 when a man from Salnés recovered from dropsy near the Sacred Fountain.

The sanctuary maintains its role as a spiritual center where pilgrims and local residents gather for religious ceremonies and traditional Galician celebrations.

The church welcomes visitors throughout the year and provides access to the Sacred Fountain, which continues to draw people seeking its waters.

The sanctuary's second tower was added in 1885 through funding from a Galician who accumulated wealth in America.
