A beautiful place, in a magical enclave, a must-see for anyone in the area.

A fully restored former monastery, a visit is highly recommended. To visit, you must cross the Fragas do Eume Natural Park. There are minibuses that can take you there, but I recommend walking to fully enjoy the scenery. The monastery offers information services, tours, and even a small bar where you can grab a bite to eat and recharge your batteries. Don't forget to visit the old mill, located about 300 meters down a side slope, with a spectacular stone bridge.

The Pontedeume Bridge ("Eume River Bridge") is a must-see, wide and beautiful. If you cross it on your way out of the city, you'll be able to take some beautiful photos. On the other side, facing the sea, is Cabañas Beach, very wide and peaceful, with a large grove of trees.

An ancient but very well-preserved and visitable monastery, very pretty and small, so you can see it in just a few minutes.

A very well-preserved ancient monastery that can be visited (I don't know the opening hours) is located on the English Way to Santiago. A quick visit is recommended (it's small but beautiful), and then continue up the path on the left.

A very well-preserved and restored former monastery, its location in the Fragas do Eume gives it a unique atmosphere, surrounded by forest and the river itself. The walk alone is a delight. Restored a few years ago, it is in perfect condition, admission is free, and there is an information service and a guide. There is also a small bar where you can recharge your batteries before returning (note that there is a minibus service that takes you to the monastery a couple of times an hour, although I highly recommend enjoying the walk parallel to the river—it's simply spectacular). Regarding the monastery, the different rooms are very well restored, with information, images, and photographs that take us back to its time as a monastery. A trip down to the old mill is also highly recommended; it's only 300 meters away and has a huge bridge next to it.

It has two different parts: the main chapel - built by Fernando de Andrade in 1538 - and the rest of the church, the work of Archbishop Rajoy at the end of the 18th century. In the main chapel, the intricate ribs of the vault and the Renaissance altarpiece from 1561 stand out. The image of Santiago Apóstol that is in the central area of the altarpiece was buried in the presbytery in 1961 when some work was underway. The rest of the church is organized on a Latin cross plan with poorly marked arms and three naves, of which the central one is covered by a barrel vault. It is made up of three "streets", two canvases were torn from the central one to place the tabernacle and the image of the patron saint, Santiago. On the façade there are three doors, the central one is crowned by the coat of arms of Fernando de Andrade, an equestrian statue of Santiago Apóstol and a plaque of the Heart of Jesus with his motto "I will reign in Spain", placed in 1900 to commemorate the beginning of the century. In its upper part there are still allusions to the heraldic emblems of the Andrade family. On the Gospel side is the tomb of Fernando de Andrade where he was moved from the center of the chapel in 1758.

The Xuvia magnolia is the most unique tree in this city. Two hundred years of history in which this large species resists the passage of time from its location, on the Xuvia seafront. And speaking of the location, it is worth highlighting the owners of the land on which the magnolia is located, for the facilities they have always given to the Narón City Council to be able to maintain this tree in optimal conditions. It is not easy to find such unique species in the area. Proof of this is the fact that the Xuvia magnolia is part of the Catalogue of Unique Trees of the Xunta de Galicia. The Provincial Council of A Coruña itself presented the book "A Magnolia de Santa Rita e a Cultura verde de Narón" in Narón, published by the aforementioned administration. The authors of this publication: Carlos Rodríguez Dacal, María Rodríguez García Garabal and Tomás Casal Pita have carried out intense research work, with the collaboration of institutions and private individuals, to publicize this tree, if possible, the most representative of our municipality and which shines in all its splendor on the Paseo Matítimo de Xuvia, near the bridge that borders the neighboring municipality of Neda.
