ES: "A igrexa de Videferre foi reconstruída no último cuarto do século XIX en base a un proxecto do arquitecto Daniel García Vaamonde, xa que o templo barroco anterior resultou cáseque destruído a consecuencia dun furacán.
O templo parroquial, con planta de cruz latina, loce unha orixinal fachada labrada en cantaría de boa calidade.
Sancristía engadida entre a capela norte e o presbiterio.
A fachada, de estilo ecléctico, sitúa un arco de medio punto dobrado sobre a porta principal, coroada por un frontón nu. No corpo intermedio un oculo circular entre semipilastras verticais cun friso superior de arquiños de imitación lombarda baixo a comixa.
Na cimeira unha espadana de dous arcos xemelgos con orificio trevolado e remate de cruz de ferro. Nos muros laterais, tres ventás enmarcadas en bandas lisas.
No interior non perdas a imaxe barroca da Piedade, atribuída ao
Mestre de Sobrado, que acolle ao seu-fillo morto en brazos.."

EN: "The church of Videferre was rebuilt in the last quarter of the nineteenth century based on a project of the architect Daniel García Vaamonde, since the previous baroque temple was destroyed as a result of a hurricane.
The parish temple, with a Latin cross plan, has an original façade carved in high quality stone.
The sanctuary is located between the north chapel and the presbytery.
The facade, of eclectic style, has a semicircular arch bent over the main door, crowned by a pediment nu. In the intermediate body there is a circular oculus between vertical semipillars with a superior frieze of Lombard imitation arches under the architrave.
In the cimeira a spandrel of two xemelgo arches with trevolado orifice and auction of iron cross. In the lateral walls, three windows framed in smooth bands.
In the interior do not miss the baroque image of the Stone, attributed to the
Mestre de Sobrado, who carries his dead brother in his arms."
