Pontedeume is inseparable from the Andrade family, who used to rule this area in the Middle Ages, and reminders of whom you will come across numerous times.

The Camino Inglés enters Pontedeume after crossing the river Eume, after which the town gets its name (Ponte do Eume simply meaning 'Bridge across the Eume'.)
