The Church of Santiago de Espasande is one of the prominent monuments in the area. Popularly known as the “Castroverde Cathedral” for its monumentality, it was declared a National Monument in 1979. Built in 1557 by Fernando de Castro and renovated by Diego Osorio in the 17th century, it presents a late ogival style with Gothic-Romanesque influences. 😊
This church is located in the town hall square of Castroverde, a small village belonging to Lugo. It has a Latin cross plan and inside you can see baroque, neoclassical and mannerist elements.
