Next to the Bernesga is known the existence of a cuélebre or winged serpent, which required from the local people a daily sheep for food. Not having sheeps left the serpent demanded maidens. It had to be San Lorenzo who ended with this monster. The cuélebre bones are preserved into a coffin in the nearby church of San Lorenzo, but it is said that the one who look into it, will become blind.
