The Church of Santa Comba de Bande is considered one of the first cruciform churches built in Visigothic architecture. Based on documents found in Celanova, there is evidence of the existence of this church in the year 675, when it was handed over to a certain Odoymo for reconstruction. In the year 872, under the reign of Alfonso III, it was rebuilt. This Benedictine temple was declared a Historic Artistic Monument in 1921 and the last restoration work was carried out in 1930. Its architectural structure is a 12×18 rectangle in the shape of a Greek cross. It features an apse on the west wing, a portico on the east wing, and roofs constructed with four slopes. While rehabilitation work has been carried out on its exterior, its interior, however, retains its original 16th-century vaults and decoration; a perfectly preserved example of Visigothic architecture. We can appreciate naves covered with half-barrel vaults made of Roman brick and a depiction of the Assumption of the Virgin alongside the Angel Gabriel and the dove of the Holy Spirit. In the chapel on the right is the sarcophagus of Saint Torquatus; one of the first disciples of the Apostle James. However, since the 10th century, his remains have rested in the Church of San Salvador de Celanova. If we pay attention to the sarcophagus, we will see that it is in a very worn state, a direct consequence of visitors and devotees scraping it to obtain the dust as a relic.
