The houses and the cobbled streets have been preserved and restored in 1994.
The Medieval Bridge is known locally as the Roman bridge. There is an inscription,
which was transcribed by Joaquín Manzanares in the 1950s, which reveals the year
1687. This date may correspond to a remodelling of an earlier base of the 12th or 14th
century.
‘Prao Del Molín’
The ‘Prao Del Molín’ is a very popular meadow in Cangas del Narcea. You can
sunbathe in summer or you can see the fire works in the different festivals, for
example in the Carmen festivals.
Next to ‘Prado Del Molín’ there is a river: ‘The Narcea river’
In the ‘Prao Del Molín’ there is a statue called ‘El Artesano’. It represents the top of a person who is ready to let go of a firework.
