The Church of Our Lady of Fatima in Fontei, located in the municipality of A Rúa, Valdeorras, Ourense, is a modern temple built between the 19th and 20th centuries. This church stands out for its two slate-covered towers and its neo-Gothic style. Every year, in May, a festival is held in honor of the Virgin of Fatima.
It is said that the famous Catalan architect Antonio Gaudí may have influenced its design, although there are no documents to confirm this. ⛪
