History[edit]

Corcubión belonged to the county of Traba, but later passed into the hands of the Count of Altamira.

Linguistic status[edit]

The local government of the municipality was the first public institution to officially use the AGAL norm^{[citation needed]} of the Galician language according to the Reintegrationism ideas, as seen in its website, offering options for "Galician" (NOMIGa) and "Galician-Portuguese" (AGAL), as well as Spanish and English.
