Stage 15 km. Towards BaamondeOnce we pass Pazo de Penas Corbeiras, which belonged to the Marquis of Hombreiro, and the restored Muíño do Rañego, magnificent popular architecture piece, we find Ponte Rodríguez and finally Ponte de Saa over River. Already in Baamonde - Begonte, we find a magnificent pilgrim’s lodging, one of the oldest in the present route. The parish church in Baamonde, dedicated to the Apostle Santiago, was built in the 14th century but also preserves Romanesque elements
Opposite the façade there are Stations of the Cross and we also see an ancient chestnut tree with a chapel dedicated to the Virgin inside. The chapel was carved by Víctor Corral. Víctor Corral’s house-museum deserves a visit as well. A lot of sculptures in the garden and in the house sum up the sculptor’s artistic activity. |
