A Coruña is the second largest city in Galicia in northwestern Spain. It had been the Galician capital from 1563 to 1982 before that role was moved to Santiago de Compostela.
The marker on this map shows the plane's position.
Currently, the only official form of the name is the Galician one, A Coruña. Nonetheless, the Spanish form La Coruña is still widespread. The city's traditional name in English is Corunna.
A Coruña is a busy port, backed up by the shipyards and metalworks of the neighbouring city of Ferrol.
It has one of the highest population densities of Spain and Europe: A Coruña and its metropolitan area have more than 419,800 inhabitants.
The promenade that skirts the entire city is the longest in Europe, measuring 10 kilometers.
In 1975, the clothing company Zara, founded by Amancio Ortega Gaona, opened its first store in the city and has since become a national and international clothing chain.
