Historic Oviedo Heritage

Oviedo’s historical core preserves a unique collection of Pre-Romanesque monuments, designated as UNESCO World Heritage sites. This selection features 9th-century architectural milestones like Santa María del Naranco and San Miguel de Lillo, alongside the Gothic Cathedral of San Salvador, which houses the sacred Holy Chamber. The list also highlights remnants of the city’s 13th-century medieval walls and noble residences like the Palacio de Inclán, illustrating Oviedo's evolution from the capital of the Kingdom of Asturias to a significant medieval administrative center.
