Explore from Casa Millo
From hillforts to Rome and the Middle Ages
The area around Celanova allows you to travel through history in one route: Castromao, Aquis Querquennis, Santa Comba de Bande and Vilanova dos Infantes represent very different periods within a relatively small area.
Why it is worth it
- Begin with Iron Age culture at Castromao.
- Continue with the Roman Via Nova and Aquis Querquennis.
- Finish with Santa Comba de Bande and the medieval atmosphere of Vilanova.
How to fit it into your stay
Celanova sits naturally in the middle of this historical route and makes a very practical base.
A pace that works
For a two- or three-day break, we recommend thinking in full days rather than endless checklists. One day can focus on Celanova and its heritage; another on one main excursion; and a third, if you have it, on nature, thermal waters or food. This leaves space for unexpected discoveries instead of turning the trip into a timetable.
Celanova is particularly practical as a base because the centre is walkable and many places in the wider area are within an easy drive. You can return to the same accommodation every night while still seeing a surprisingly varied part of inland Galicia.
