- Museum
In the town of Villarquille (San Martín de Oscos) we find the Casa del Marco, a peasant house with its furniture, tools and implements which shows the way of life of the rural society of the region until the mid-twentieth century.
The set consists of five buildings that house the different spaces of a traditional house: the house with the entrance hall, the kitchen, the living room, the rooms, the attic and the oven cellar; and the rest of spaces for the development of the peasant activity: stables, hayloft, cabanón, loom, carpentry, henhouse, wine cellar, woodshed and potato.
In the farms near the house you can also enjoy the presence of animals typical of an Asturian farmhouse: chickens, horses, cows,…

What to see?

Contemporary art sculptures and sculptures by César Montaña (Vegadeo)
- Vegadeo
- Sculpture
The town of Vegadeo has the peculiarity of being crossed by two rivers: the Monjardín and the Suarón, which have twelve bridges that cross them (six each). Taking advantage of this circumstance, the idea was that visitors to Vegadeo could get to know the town center by crossing these bridges, and enriching the visit with a sculpture on each of them.
-
Mazonovo Mallet
- Santa Eulalia de Oscos
- Ethnographic set
The Mazonovo Mallet is located about 3 km from Santa Eulalia. It is a 17th century mallet active in the 21st century. This set is restored and rehabilitated in its integrity for the understanding of the iron industry. The building of the mallet stands out for being in a state in which it has not suffered great modifications with the passage of time. Here you can forge your own nail and take it as a souvenir.

Yacimientos Arqueológicos “Os Castros”
- Taramundi
- Heritage
El yacimiento, conocido como Os Castros se localiza en la capital del concejo. Buena parte de su superficie se ha mantenido ajena al desarrollo urbano del municipio si bien la carretera que desciende hacia Mazonovo significó la destrucción algunas cabañas y parte de la muralla. En el año 2000 se iniciaron las excavaciones arqueológicas bajo patrocinio del Ayuntamiento de Taramundi, la Consejería de Cultura del Principado de Asturias y la meritoria colaboración de la asociación de hosteleros locales ANTURTA.
