    Cruceiro, made of granite, which rests on a platform formed by a rough stone, not carved, with a snake engraved on its surface. The cross is formed by a shaft with a smooth quadrangular section, which supports a muxe cross with a quadrangular section, with beveled arms. There are theories about its link with a petroglyph converted into a cross in times of Christianization. Around the snake, on its pedestal, cups can be seen.

    Legend has it that it was Saint Adrián, patron saint of this parish, who freed this land from a plague of snakes, stamping his foot hard on the ground and making them all disappear, remaining enchanted under this stone.
