Overview
Discover the layers of history in Avilés, where medieval charm meets industrial innovation. We begin at Parque del Muelle by the fountain, where we’ll discuss the estuary's transformation and the city's famous modern landmarks.
Tour Highlights:
Sabugo District: Explore the old fishing village of Sabugo. We’ll visit its historic churches and learn about the "avilesinos" who shaped the local identity.
The Medieval Core: Crossing into the ancient city, we’ll wander through mercantile streets that bustled during the city's trading heyday, uncovering some of the oldest architecture in Asturias.
Baroque Grandeur: See the city’s elegant expansion, including the City Hall and grand palaces. We’ll pass an ancient monastery and walk up one of the city's most emblematic streets, known for its traditional arches.
A Green Finale: We conclude our journey in one of the most beautiful parks in Asturias, a serene space that perfectly captures the spirit of the city.
This tour is perfect for those who want to understand how a medieval trading port evolved into a modern cultural hub. Join us to uncover the secret stories of Avilés!
