This museum was created to show the great variety of hydraulic and hand-operated mills that were used throughout history and in different parts of the world to grind cereals.
Two kilometers from the town of Vegadeo is the village of Piantón, which can be reached on foot as the entire route has a sidewalk. It is a beautiful walk along the Suarón River.
The history of Villanueva de Oscos is closely linked to the Monastery of Santa María, at the entrance of the capital of the council. This Monastery, considered one of the great jewels of Asturian heritage and classified as a Historic-Artistic Monument, was born Romanesque and grew Baroque.
