Interpretation Center of Fishing in the Eo River
- San Tirso de Abres
- Interpretation center
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 most important milestones related to fishing in the Eo during the twentieth century are reviewed with special attention to the Marzales preserve and the National Tourism Preserve.
We find on display objects and tools, both traditional and modern, related to the fishing activity: rods, flies, nets, reels, pots, fish traps, hooks, baskets, … that help us to understand what fishing meant in the Eo for much of the last century.

- Mines
There are remains in the Oscos region that tell us that mining was an activity that was developed in the area since prehistoric times. Before the conquest of the Romans, the inhabitants of this region were already looking for gold nuggets in the river placers. But it was after the arrival of the Romans that this industry was boosted. In the Flavian period, at the beginning of the first century A.D., a first golden age was experienced. The castros (fortified settlements) resurged as a result of the exploitations and the landscape was dotted with small industries of which there are still remains such as: forges, function furnaces and samples of the technology that was used for the exploitation of the deposit.
