FARO DE VIGO is the oldest newspaper of the Spanish press. It was printed for the first time on November 3, 1853 in the typographic workshop owned by its founder, Mr. Angel de Lema y Marina, on Calle de la Oliva in Vigo, with the idea of "helping the interests of Galicia". Since 1986 it has belonged to Editorial Prensa Ibérica, a leading communication group in Spain, whose common criteria are independence, rigor and pluralism, together with the maximum commitment to the various territories in which they are published.
Throughout its more than 150 years of history, Faro de Vigo has become an essential element of Galician life, with special incidence in the center and south of the Community.
