18th C Indian Ocean Voyages

La Corogne (A Coruña)


The Prince de Conti was at La Corogne on 10, 12, 20, 24, 27 April; 9, 30-31 May; 6-7, 20, 29 June; 6, 24-25, 27-28 July; 2, 4, 15, 24-25 August; 6, 9, 19 September; 9 October 1756.

Due to the recent outbreak of what would come to be known as the Seven Years War (May 1756), much of this time the vessel was patrolling the coast, on the lookout for British ships. However, the crew did have time to disembark and visit certain Spanish landmarks, including Santiago de Compostela.
