Description:
Reconstruction and restoration on doing of a hamlet (6 houses) situated in a Natural Park. It used to be a stop on the Road to Compostella and was abandoned in the beginning from the 20th century. The houses laid in ruins and work was carried out with the original stones from the former buildings, respecting the regional architecture. All structural works (walls, frames) were done in 1987. After that the roofs were restored with traditional slates.
