2026Events - Assembly of Melide - Set

To commemorate the 5th centenary of the Assembly of Knights and Prelates of the Kingdom of Galicia, which took place on December 4, 1520, a meeting was held in Melide to commemorate this historic event. This was a high-level meeting that brought together the lords of the Old Kingdom of Galicia to decide on behalf of the people and request a series of clauses from King Charles I. This event reaped the fruits already sown in the Irmandiñas Revolt, which had its focus and starting point in a meeting also held in the town of Melide.
