Comment

The Millennium Bridge is the fifth bridge that crosses the river Miño in the city of Ourense. Opened in 2001, it stands out for its original pedestrian walkway that rises more than 20 meters. From the lookouts installed at that height, you can enjoy a spectacular view over the river Miño and the numerous thermal facilities offered by the city of Ourense, considered one of the most important in Europe thermal resources.

Interesting fact

The Orense 5 Euro silver coin from Spain, minted in 2012, features a unique design that showcases the city's rich history and culture. The coin's reverse side depicts the Romanesque Cathedral of Orense, a stunning example of medieval architecture that dates back to the 12th century. The cathedral's intricate stone carvings and ornate details are beautifully captured on the coin, making it a truly collectible piece for numismatists and history enthusiasts alike.
