Lobios

Lobios is a municipality in the province of Ourense in the Galicia region of north-west Spain, bordering Portugal to the south. The estimated population in 2021 was 1,672.The village of Aceredo ) lies within the municipality, but in 1992 it, along with the villages of gl:Buscalque, O Vao, A Reloeira and gl:Lantemil, which together had 250 residents, was drowned by the reservoir behind the Alto Lindoso Dam downstream on the Limia River in Portugal. On 15 August 1991 the land was compulsorily acquired by Portuguese company EDP , based on an old deal between Spanish dictator General Franco and former Prime Minister of Portugal Salazar. Residents of all of the villages, supported by left-leaning political parties, immediately began protests against the building of the dam, including a 10-day hunger strike. In the end, with no option but to move, the residents of Aceredo relocated bodies of their deceased loved ones, and an historic church was moved to a different town. Some moved to nearby villages, while others moved far away.
