The exhibition, which opened on November 3, features fifteen panels exploring the historical and heritage significance of the Andrade family, with a special focus on Pontedeume and its surroundings. The content covers señorial architecture, the Andrade lineage, their presence in historical documentation, and the cultural legacy they have left.
The initiative, part of the 2026 Science and Technology Week, continues the IEGPS's line of action with traveling exhibitions on Galician castles and fortresses. The curator is Eduardo Pardo de Guevara y Valdés, an ad honorem professor at CSIC.
The project is supported by the Axencia Turismo de Galicia, the Concello de Pontedeume, and the Secretaría Xeral da Lingua of the Xunta de Galicia. The development of this initiative can be followed on the "Os Nosos Castelos" website, which includes exhibition information, biographies, and audiovisual material.
