Lourosa

This town's main attraction is the Mozarabic church, the only one on the Peninsula, which attests to the town's antiquity, predating the Christian reconquest. Also of great cultural interest are the remains of medieval anthropomorphic tombs, some Roman and perhaps Visigothic. Also, noteworthy are the pillory (a Property of Public Interest) and several sunny houses from the 17th and 18th centuries.
