Palas de Rei

Castromaior

We go through CASTROMAYOR. The name comes from the great hill fort in the surroundings. There is a Romanesque church dedicated to St Mary. And we get to VENTAS DE NARÓN, the last population in Portomarín that was very important in the Middle Ages. In the year 820, there was here a great battle between Arabs and Christians where the latter got the victory. The Codex of Calixtus mentions it as Sala Regina.
