Esquíos is a village in the council of Taramundi inhabited for centuries by families of ferreiros, the Lombardía family, who emigrated from Italy to the Basque Country and later to Asturias.
The house where Antonio Raimundo Ibáñez, Marquis of Sargadelos (1749-1809) was born is now an exhibition space dedicated to the life and work of this industrial and enlightened merchant, who in the late 18th century built in Sargadelos (Cervo, Lugo) one of the first cast-iron foundry and earthenware factories in Spain.
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.
The castros are population centers of an eminently strategic and defensive nature. They are found throughout the northwest of the peninsula (castreña culture). These settlements arise in the transition from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age, reaching its peak during the Second Iron Age.
Among the artistic heritage of San Martín de Oscos it is worth mentioning the legendary and majestic Palacio de Mon. Conditioned by the sloping terrain, its main facade faces south while its foundations adapt to the slope, fitting into the west bay below ground level while developing height to the east.
