Places of Felpos: Or Castelo, Or Corral, Felpos, Or Outeiro.
There documents the existence of one castle destroyed in the year 1321 in punishment to his owner Alvar Sánchez de Ulloa who was committing all kinds of violent acts against pilgrims who were happening for the Milky Way. In the XIVth century this one parish belonged to the monastery of San Antoniño of Touches, for later, in the XVIIIth century, to turn into dominion of the count of Monterrei. (Text delegation)
San Tome of Felpos: Simple rural work of small dimensions. The walls are of masonry and chairs of granite, and the tile covering to two and three waters, and the paving is of granite flagstones. The plant is rectangular in case of the ship, and squared in the presbytery. Both spaces divide by means of a triumphal arch of half a point in edge. The facade, with front flat, is finished off by a belfry of vain only one. In the wall side S, next to the triumphal arch, under a semicircular arch it finds an altar with stony sculptures that represent the adoration of the kings, and on this arch there is a medallion with the San image Pedro. Medallions of this type find for the rest of ship, silverware of lime at present, while the reredos of high altar is of Neoclassic style (Text of Turgalicia)
