The Terras do Miño Biosphere Reserve covers a large part of the province of Lugo, including Vilalba, and is characterized by: Rivers and streams with ancient stone bridges, some built with slate, typical of the region.

Located in the old town of Pobra de Parga, opposite the parish church of Santo Estevo, in the municipality of Gutiriz, this tower and part of a medieval wall still stands proudly at its highest point. It stands guard from its hill over the Parga River, which flows below it, and connects us to the town via a Gothic bridge. It was built by Juan Pérez Parragués and in 1603 was used as a jurisdictional prison. Currently declared a site of cultural interest, remains of a section of the wall still exist. It is made of large, fine ashlar masonry, reaching a maximum height of eight meters and including a circular bastion about four meters in diameter.

The original castle dates back to the 11th century, although the current tower was rebuilt in the 15th century after the Irmandiño revolts, which destroyed much of the fortress. It was owned by the lords of Lemos and later passed into the hands of Fernán Pérez de Andrade, who left his heraldic mark on the tower with the figure of the wild boar, a symbol of his lineage. In the 19th century, during the First Carlist War, the tower was reused as a defensive bastion and later restored.
