"A igrexa de Santiago de Cereixo é do século XII. Probablemente os seus contrutores foron un taller ou grupo de canteiros precedentes de Vasconia que traballaron na construción da Catedral de Santiago. Ao seu remate no ano 1122, acometeron os traballos da igrexa e mosteiro de San Xulián de Moirame (Muxía) primeiro e logo, na última metade de de século, a desta igrexa ramánica e outras pola costa galega."
