The Casa del Agua de Bres, Taramundi, was created with the aim of making known the relationship between cultures and the dynamics of water throughout history. In this installation water is conceived, on the one hand, as a living substance capable of developing a force that men have been using throughout history to perform tasks that require power and routine work.
Through different media (audiovisual, photographic and computer) we can learn about the Eo River, the different species that inhabit it or the relationship of man with the river; how humans have taken advantage of the wealth offered by its waters and, above all, the importance that fishing has had in the area.
The town of Vegadeo has the peculiarity of being crossed by two rivers: the Monjardín and the Suarón, which have twelve bridges that cross them (six each). Taking advantage of this circumstance, the idea was that visitors to Vegadeo could get to know the town center by crossing these bridges, and enriching the visit with a sculpture on each of them.
Some artisans perform demonstrations in their workshops of the craft they develop. In this way, visitors can see the whole process of elaboration of the products, which also allows them to actively participate in the process.
In the town of Villarquille (San Martín de Oscos) we find the Casa del Marco, a peasant house with its furniture, tools and implements which shows the way of life of the rural society of the region until the mid-twentieth century.
