The beautiful monastery of Santa María de Monfero, declared a site of cultural interest, was founded in the 12th century by Alfonso VII. It belonged to the Cistercian order, whose monks stayed in the monastery premises until the second half of the 19th century. It is currently in ruins but both the exterior and the interior are worth a visit.

Monastery in semi-ruin but you can appreciate the grandeur of the place right next to one of the information centers of the Fragas do Eume natural park
