It is named after the "Menino de Ouro", the Golden Boy: João Lopes Fernandes (1905–1973), whose parents promised his weight in gold to Our Lady of O if they were blessed with an heir. He lived in this house until his death, and in the 1950s left 100 cork oaks on his land never to be stripped, for the sake of science.
