    Of Renaissance and Baroque style, from the 16th and 17th centuries, the magnificent Romanesque church built by its first Cistercian abbot in 1167 is also preserved. It has a Latin cross plan with three naves and three apses. The cover is perhaps the most remarkable of the temple, with its six archivolts supported on as many pairs of columns and above, a beautiful openwork rose window.

      Between the Pontevedra and Arousa estuaries, in the Salnés region, stands the old Cistercian Monastery of Armenteira, inhabited by a community of nuns of the same order.

        Intermediate point of the Water Route, after seven kilometers of ascent through the interior of the forest following the Armenteira stream, there are a couple of bars where you can recharge your batteries, apart from visiting the Church and cloister of the Monastery, before starting the descent.
