Avilés preserves an old town that surprises anyone who visits it. Its origins date back to the Middle Ages, when it was granted the charter that elevated the settlement to the status of a town and a defensive wall was built, now almost entirely gone.

On this tour, we'll explore the center of Avilés, with its typical arcades, along with the Sabugo neighborhood, the only district outside the town walls that existed in the Middle Ages. We'll learn about its history, its most iconic places and buildings, and how it has transformed over time due to its port activity and more recent industrialization.
