Image of Montederramo, not of the place itself.

The 1836 Mendizábal disentailment put an end to the Cistercian community of Montederramo and put the monastery's property up for public auction; much of it was bought by a merchant from Ourense, the church remained as the parish church, and the rest passed into private hands.

1835
