In addition Monforte is the history of the railroad in Galicia (Headquarters of Muferga),the Mount of San Vicente (Castro Dactonio) dominating the valley, the Escolapios (Nuestra Señora de la Antigua school) known as the Galician Escorial commanding the Company Square, one of the best sacred art museums in the peninsula (The Clarisas Museum), It is wine and friendly people, it is a tradition and a splendid past associated with names such as the VII Count of Lemos or Cardinal Rodrigo de Castro.
