We left Coído de Frexufre to explore this last stretch that takes us to Laxe via Cabo da Area.
And just when we thought we’d seen it all, as we toured forts and dolmens, we came across this 21st-century architectural marvel on the first property (private property but visible from the road): La Trufa.
According to its creator, architect Antón García-Abril, La Trufa is an anecdotal work, due to its design, execution, and setting. It’s a fragment of nature built with earth, filled with air. A space within a stone that rests on the ground and blends in with the surroundings. It camouflages itself by emulating the processes of mineral formation in its structure, and integrates with the natural environment by submitting to its laws.
It’s incredibly interesting; watch the video or this report…
