Castro de Chano

Highlight • Historical Site

The castros were Asturian settlements that were characterized by being located in dominant positions and sometimes also protected by moats or other defenses. The Castro de Chano is an exceptional example due to its state of conservation, next to which an excellent interpretation center has been built that helps to understand the lifestyle in these places. In winter, the center must be visited by appointment, by calling 987565082. In summer it only opens a couple of hours in the morning and another couple in the afternoon, so it is also a good idea to plan your visit. This castro also has the peculiarity that coins were found in the houses, which could indicate that it was abandoned quickly, but it is not known for what reason, since it does not have any signs of violence.

Small town of Berciano known for its intriguing cave paintings, between 2,000 and 5,000 years old. Although the drawings are difficult to interpret, both human and animal forms (possibly dogs, deer or goats) are perceived, as well as some plant motifs.
