Baamonde Church

Highlight • Religious Site

Church that began to be built in the s. IX, ship of the s. XII and main chapel of the XV (collapsed in the Irmandiña Revolt). And rebuilt by order of the Bishop of Mondoñedo, Pedro Arias Vaamonde, a native of the town.
Gothic building built with details of Romanesque tradition in its sculptural decoration. The Romanesque part accuses or influenced pilgrimages to Santiago and has two kinds of stonemason signs: one in the shape of an S and the other in the shape of a square with a dot in the middle.

Andrade Tower

Highlight • Castle

This tower with an octagonal base, an old homage tower, is the only vestige that reminds us of the existence of a fortress castle, whose origins date back to the 11th century, although this element dates from the 15th. Its silhouette dominates Vilalba, capital of the region known as Terra Chá. It is known that the old castle, successively remodeled from its origin, already had three towers and a polygonal wall in the 13th century. It belonged to the lords of Lemos, but later King Pedro I donated it to Fernán Pérez de Andrade or Boo, thus passing it to the heritage of this noble family, which will leave its heraldic symbols in the construction, such as the stone representation of the boar .

Swimming in the Río de Parga

Highlight • River

From any point of the Baamonde Recreational Area we contemplate a postcard of this little paradise of inland Galicia, a corner where time seems to stand still. Like the waters of the Parga River that also stop here to form its fluvial beach, coming from its source, there in the Sierra de Cova da Serpe, before continuing on its way until it meets another river, the Ladra.
