Xermeade is a small village in the municipality of Muíños, set in a landscape of outstanding natural beauty between the mountains of the Xurés and the Limia valley. Among its heritage landmarks, the Church of San Miguel de Xermeade stands out as the parish’s main historic landmark.
Its location reflects the traditional pattern of settlement in the area, with the most favourable land used for agriculture and livestock farming while the surrounding slopes remain covered by natural vegetation. From the Mirador do Pisco, visitors can appreciate how harmoniously the village blends into the landscape, with houses, meadows and wooded hills creating a scene characteristic of the Baixa Limia.
Located very close to the Salas Reservoir and several hiking trails, Xermeade is an excellent starting point for discovering the natural and ethnographic richness of the municipality of Muíños, in a landscape where nature and tradition remain closely intertwined.
