Abbey of San Clodio

Monument · Ribas de Sil, Quiroga, Lugo

Founded around the tenth century in the municipal capital and handed to the Benedictines in 1154, it preserves Visigothic and Mozarabic building and decorative elements dated to the eleventh century, uncommon in Galician religious architecture, alongside Romanesque ones. Restored in 1604, it suffered damage in the Peninsular War and was remade with Neoclassical altarpieces.
