Nice village where you can take a break

«This chapel and nave made parishioners and a priest. Year 1714». The inscription printed on a slab dates the church of San Martín, located in the heart of Taramundi; a religious temple that, due to its large dimensions, can be seen from any point in the town or from the mountains. A church, which three hundred years later the descendants of those parishioners from the 18th century, keep standing by financing its rehabilitation. Its high, square and solid tower stands out, topped by a slate capital, although it is not the original one that was destroyed by lightning. The current one dates from 1952. Inside there are six altarpieces, all of them in Neoclassical style, except for the main altarpiece in Baroque style.

The Taramundi castro, one of the most important of all those existing in Asturias, was one of the main commercial centers during the Roman occupation (1st and 2nd centuries), since due to its strategic location it was a transition point on the commercial routes of merchandise transports.

The waterfall is formed by the Salgueira River, which flows through a deep gorge before falling over a rocky ledge and cascading down into a pool below. The height of the waterfall is approximately 30 meters (98 feet). What you want is to stay in silence for a while contemplating this wonderful waterfall in a beautiful setting

The museum is dedicated to the traditional water mills that used to be used in the area to grind corn and other cereals. Visitors to the museum can explore the various mills and learn about their history and operation. The museum also offers guided tours and demonstrations of how the mills were used in the past. It is a unique and fascinating place to visit, offering insight into the region's cultural heritage and traditional way of life.

The Vilaoudriz kilns, made up of five kilns built in different stages, are the largest set of calcination kilns in the northwest of the peninsula and a visit is highly recommended. The two oldest were built in brick, while the other three used masonry. With 11 meters high and 4 meters in diameter each, and four loading entrances, this construction also preserves a mine entrance from where the mineral extracted from the Vieiro Mine came.

The Consuleo Mines are a unique space, integrated into nature, which values the mining past of the town of A Pontenova, in the province of Lugo. Without a doubt, a spectacular place to enter and enjoy the second largest cavity in Galicia.

Built in the 17th century, the church of Santa María de Conforto houses an interesting exhibition of pieces of sacred art.
