Padriñán or Virrey traditional Galician house

Dates from the first half of the 18th century. Rectangular building with a baroque-style bell tower. Legend has it that a resident of Padriñán went to Pontevedra to get salt and ended up enlisting with Hernán Cortés to conquer Mexico. On his return he built this traditional Galician house, which took the name of Virrey.
