Services
Barbadelo has the Iglesia de Santiago — a small Romanesque church with a fine carved doorway that is one of the better examples of rural Romanesque architecture in Galicia. The church sits slightly off the camino but is worth the few extra steps.
A bar and a basic albergue serve the hamlet. The walking from here continues through rolling Galician countryside, passing through a succession of tiny hamlets.
History
Barbadelo, small as it is, once housed a monastery in 874. The current church dates from the 12th century and has several quality sculptures, including the animals carved into the north portal. It is 50m off the camino to your left, signed.
