Fisterra aka The End of the Earth

This tip of Spain was dubbed Finis Terrae (the end of earth) by the
Romans who believed the sun was engulfed each night by the sea.

Up until the days of Christopher Colombus this was the westernmost tip
of the world. And since the world was flat, it was thought that you
would fall off the earth if you ventured out too far into the sunset.

This sculpture of a hiking boot on the tip of the world pays homage to
the pilgrims who have finished their journey. It's tradition to burn
your clothes next to this sculpture then dive in the ocean to clean
yourself (I guess all the old-school pilgrims walked home in their
birthday suits).
