To all history, art and monument enthusiasts: if you happen upon or you are thinking about visiting the municipality of Villaviciosa (Asturias), you must visit the church of San Juan de Amandi in Amandi, only 3km from Villaviciosa.
San Juan de Amandi was declared a National Monument in 1931 and it is a late-Romanesque church; it is one of the most important buildings from the Asturian Romanesque period and it stands out from other monuments in rural areas because of its shapes, volume and above all because of its large number of sculptures. It is thought to date from the first third of the 13th century, when the church of Santa María de Valdediós was founded. Leer más »

Asturias is a water-rich land and Man has long used the natural force of this element to carry out certain labours, such as milling maize.
Evidence of this is found along the Route of Profundu (Villaviciosa – Asturias), where you can find a range of mills which were used by farmers to mill maize.
