What you can expect

On this tour of the mysteries and legends of Ponferrada, visit the historic city of Ponferrada and hear the most curious and mysterious facts about the city and even the region. Lots of legends and anecdotes make this tour a unique way to experience the area.

The visit begins at the indicated time right in front of the Castle of the Templars, where your guide will explain to you who the templars were, and all the mysteries that surrounded them.

Continue around the castle until you reach the Plaza de la Virgen de la Encina. Hear several legends about this virgin and also about the Camino de Santiago. Walk the city's abandoned streets to learn stories from the Franco era and the war.

Walk among graffiti and abandoned structures until reaching the 16th-century prison of the city. To finish the visit, head to the Plaza del Ayuntamiento to see the lesser-known but very mysterious Order of the Golden Fleece.

The icing on the cake and the end will be with the dark storey of the Nevenka case, a former city councilor who unfortunately suffered abuse of all kinds. End the tour with a suite of unique impressions of Ponferrada.
