Spanish priest and historian (1837–1910)

Antonio López Ferreiro was a multifaceted figure who combined his work as a priest with an intense career as a historian and archaeologist.

Born in Santiago de Compostela, he dedicated much of his life to researching and documenting the history of his hometown.

His most notable work, Galicia in the last third of the 15th century, is a fundamental reference for understanding the region's past.

In addition to his literary work, he served as a librarian, contributing to the preservation of cultural heritage.

His deep connection to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela shaped both his professional path and his prolific written output.
