The stone hedges of A Coruna

 Braving the chilled air outside my hotel, a walk along the beach revealed few interesting monuments.  

The Galician Stonehenge- a 90s modern art monument in stone with squarish openings looked interesting.

Enjoying the Atlantic view

This monument was made for a very serious purpose- to memorialise the victims of pro-Franco repression, particularly those who died in terrible incidents in the area. Outside the  Galician city of A Coruna is an area called Campo de la Rata, or Field of the Rat, where this and the modern megalithic monuments are located. This one was designed by the artist Isaac Díaz Pardo.
