Explanation
The element that we choose is a church that is located in Bertamiráns next to a pazo called Peregrina. It is a Christian building where people who believe in God go to pray. The church is made of stone with a large double door, in its facade it has a stained glass window and in the upper part a bell tower with two bells. Above this is the symbolic cross.

This church is important for the citizens of Bertamiráns because it is the place where all the believers in God meet to pay homage and ask forgiveness for their sins to Jesus. This is very important for them because in their lives this action helps them. As it is the only church in Bertamirans and its surroundings, many people gather in it every day, especially on Sundays. It is not only used to pray, but also for religious events such as weddings, baptisms or communions.

Explanation
The graffiti of Biosbardos is the most colorful and extensive one of Bertamiráns.
Biosbardos is a place where many parties are celebrated, like halloween and carnival, and also birthdays. We choosed this place because we think that is an iconic space for the inhabitants of Bertamiráns.
In the picture, we can see almost all the the graffiti, there is another part behind the left corner and we couldn't photograph it.
