A Coruña (Galician: [a koˈɾuɲa]) or La Coruña (Spanish: [la koˈɾuɲa])
(still sometimes known as Corunna in English, and archaically as The
Groyne) is a city and municipality of Galicia, Spain. It is the second-
largest city in the autonomous community and seventeenth overall in
the country. The city is the provincial capital of the province of the
same name, having also served as political capital of the Kingdom of
Galicia[1][2] from the XVIth to the XIXth centuries, and as a regional
administrative centre between 1833 and 1982, before being replaced by
Santiago de Compostela.
A Coruña is a busy port located on a promontory in the entrance of an
estuary in a large gulf (the Portus Magnus Artabrorum of the classical
geographers) on the Atlantic Ocean. It provides a distribution point
for agricultural goods from the region. Although much of the heavy
industry is based on the shipyards and metalworks of the neighbouring
city of Ferrol, there is an oil refinery in A Coruña itself
