Castroverde is a municipality in the province of Lugo, in the autonomous community of Galicia, Spain. It belongs to the comarca of Lugo.
Castroverde is very rural area. The main economic activity is milk and meat production. There are also a few rabbit and poultry farms. Rural tourism has some importance with a few rural hotels. Because farming is increasingly automated, Castroverde's population shrank during the 20th century, and prospects say that this process will continue until the present century.
Administrative subdivisions are called parishes; it has its origin in church organization. These 37 parishes are rich in archeological vestiges, churches and chapels, waterwheels and pazos (a type of Galician traditional house). Remains of an important castle are also present in Castroverde.
