Introduction
The parish church of O Grove, built on the walls of a Romanesque temple. It preserves a 16th-century arch with the twelve apostles.
Description
The current temple uses walls from a previous Romanesque church: it has a semicircular apse and two side chapels. In a 17th-century renovation, the choir and the Baroque bell tower were added.
Its jewel is the pointed arch from the 16th century decorated with the twelve apostles.
- In front: the bust of the former parish priest José Franco.
- Festival: San Martiño, November 11.
