This is the ninth issue in the annual series dedicated to Spanish sites on the UNESCO World Heritage List, and features Santiago de Compostela.
This famous pilgrimage site in north-west Spain became a symbol in the Spanish Christians' struggle against Islam. Destroyed by the Muslims at the end of the 10th century, it was completely rebuilt in the following century. With its Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque buildings, the Old Town of Santiago is one of the world's most beautiful urban areas. The oldest monuments are grouped around the tomb of St James and the cathedral, which contains the remarkable Pórtico de la Gloria.
In 2010 the Spanish Royal Mint started a series of 2 euro commemorative coins dedicated to the Spanish sites on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The first seven coins were dedicated to Cordoba, Alhambra, Granada, Burgos cathedral, El Escorial monastery, the Works of Gaudi, Altamira cave, the Aqueduct of Segovia and Santa Maria del Naranco.
