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,…

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.
