About this work
View of the Tower of Hercules and the surrounding area during sunrise. The spot is located near the center of A Coruña, Galicia, north-western coast of Spain. The 55 metres (180 ft) height tower, an ancient Roman lighthouse, is the oldest (almost 1900 years) Roman lighthouse in use today and the second tallest lighthouse in Spain (after the Faro de Chipiona). The lighthouse was rehabilitated in 1791 and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2009.
