At Monte de San Bieito da Cova do Lobo, in San Lorenzo de Piñor, county Barbadás (Ourense) there is a cliff called The Tangaraño, Penedo Vigón The Enganido and also serves as an exceptional view over the city of Ourense, and is very visited during the pilgrimage of San Bieito da Cova do Lobo by thousands of pilgrims. There is a chapel a few hundred meters from Tangaraño. The church, as it always did, knew very well take advantage of this enclave adjudging to him the benefits it could bring to the miracles that made Our Lord. The Tangaraño is a gigantic cliff, a typical cake granite 15 meters in diameter based upon other rocks, so you can pass beneath the crouching. Inside, in a corner there is a pool that always, whether summer or winter, is full of water. This place is undoubtedly one of those in which the telluric energy comes to light, a magical place, healing, replenishing. Always the inhabitants Area adjudge healing properties, especially for skin diseases, especially warts, tumors, goiters, wounds and especially for children rickets, a disease known as tangaraño. According to popular tradition, the tangaraño is a demon that attacks the captives leaving them stunted. This was what he narrated Curros Enriquez in his poem "Tangaraños". The cliff hole is located in the vicinity of the shrine of St. Benedict's Cave of the Wolf, in Piñor. There have to go three Marys to offer children the Holy, saying Ten counts, Santini From my tangaraño: Sick leave cho, Give me healthy. The outline of the rock stands by vegetation, abundant oaks and arbutus. Children have to pass them entangarañados three women through the hole of the Stone Tangaraño or Vigón Penedo, telling that goes: Hey Mary, there you go or tangaraño. And to answer the following: -Devólvocho safe and sound. It also manages to cure about making us a brush and passing the child above the water puddle. Then dress the child with new clothes, leaving them there that wore. For different areas of the cliff prints appear patriarchal crosses with this initial break cliff quixérono few beds but there was no way, did not enter the stone nor cuñeiros or pointers. The name of St. Benedict's Cave Wolf See you of the belief that the same St. Benedict walked fleeing from something in those hills and went squatting in a cave wolf. The main pilgrimage is celebrated July 11, although the March 21 takes place called St. Benedict winter. Information: www.barbadas.es
