Latest case study
The Froxán Common Woodlands are a community land of 100 hectares that has been recognized since 1977 as a 'monte veciñal en man común' ('common hand community land'). This is a consuetudinary land ownership status, recognized in Galician and Spanish law. Its manorial origin can be traced back to 1409 and its charters were issued in 1527 and 1709, defining the boundaries of community lands and the manorial obligations.
