Castroverde is a municipality in Lugo province, Spain.

Castroverde is located in the mid-northeast of the autonomous community of Galicia.

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.
