About Rubia Gallega CattleAbout Rubia Gallega Cattle



Rubia Gallega ( Galician: Rubia Galega) are a breed of cattle native to the autonomous community of Galicia in north-western Spain. They are found throughout Galicia, with about 75% of the population concentrated in the province of Lugo. They are found particularly at altitudes above 550m in the mountainous areas in the northern part of the province, including the Serra da Carba, the Serra de Lourenzá], and the Serra de Xistral. They are red-blond, wheaten, or cinnamon-colored.

A herdbook was established in 1933. In the 20th century, some crossbreeding occurred with the Portuguese Barrosã, Swiss Braunvieh, Simmental, and British Shorthorn breeds.

Rubia Gallega cattle are primarily for meat; however, their milk is used in the production of Tetilla cheese, which has had Denominación de Origen certification since 1993 and European DOP certification since 1996.
