Lourenzá is a town with much history, revolving around the hospitality and industry of the Benedictine monastery founded by Count Don Osorio Gutiérrez (“Saint Count”) in 969. According to tradition, the name Lourenzá is derived from the names of his children, Lourenzo and Ana. The current monastic building is a spectacular baroque structure whose church was planned in 1732. Its façade served as a trial for the Obradoiro façade of the cathedral in Santiago. In the chapel of Valdeflores (18th century) is the marble Paleochristian sarcophagus (6th century) which Don Osorio brought from Aquitaine in the 10th century for his body's eternal rest. The baroque legacy of Lourenzá is enriched by the chapel of Nuestra Señora De Valdanera and the monastery's striking reredos-reliquary. From the Neoclassic period is the solemn architecture of the high reredos and its images carved by Ferreiro. The Museum of Religious Art widens the town's cultural possibilities.
