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.

The Andrade Tower in Vilalba (Lugo) is an impressive medieval building that constitutes the only vestige of the old Vilalba Castle, and one of the most important historical symbols of the Terra Chá region.

A mighty and historic tower with a beautiful coat of arms 🤙

Picnic area near the pilgrimage route 🤙

The N-634 is an icon for those of us who live there. I do it at about 495 km. This km, you will understand, is special.

Recommending stopping in front of a cemetery seems strange, but this one is worth a stop. Yes, short. Rest will come!!

Near the church is the neo-Gothic cemetery of Goiriz, located on the North Way to Santiago de Compostela. This cemetery, built in the 16th century and renovated in the 18th, is a jewel of the neo-Gothic style. Its niches are crowned by elaborate pinnacles carved in stone, finished with crosses made by the Stonemasons of Román. Although it shows the wear and tear of time, its special charm lies in its antiquity and the contrast with the new expansion that took place at the beginning of the 20th century. The cemetery is very well preserved and is located at kilometer 619 of national highway 634.

Very interesting and very old cemetery. Reminds me a bit of a city with towers.
