Heritage inventory
O Irixo
O Carballiño · Ourense
The percentage is not a judgement on the municipality: it measures how much we know about it. A place with no photo or text still exists; what is missing is someone to document it. The data comes from Wikidata, OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons, and anyone can add there whatever is missing.

Correct or add
If something is missing, if there is an error, or if the council wants to contribute its own inventory, there are three routes and all of them are public:
- Add it on OpenStreetMap or Wikidata: it comes in by itself, at the next update.
- Upload geotagged photos to Commons.
- Report it here: Report an issue
