What you can expect

Under the foot of the cathedral tower we will hear the curse of Oria, the first documented medieval exorcism. We will reveal the mysterious origin of the holy shroud, kept in the enigmatic Holy Chamber, and in the shadow of its ancient wall or the church of San Tiso we will remember some ancient legends of the Asturian kings.

Going beyond the Arcu de Cimavilla we will try to understand the keys to the place's relationship with the world of witchcraft, while in El Fontán stories of horrific drownings await us in its ancient lagoon. Finally, at the foot of the Campusagráu Palace or the University we will approach the legends about certain beings from Asturian mythology present in Oviedo/Uvieo.

Few Carbayones know that Oviedo-Uvieo served as a hiding place for some of the most bloodthirsty Nazi criminals. We will learn about the intrepid life of one of them, who died in 2001!

But we will also review the main intrigues and tragedies witnessed by the Palacio de la Rúa, one of the oldest medieval towers in Asturias and which still hides many secrets. In other settings, such as Azcárraga Street or the gloomy Socastiello area, chilling (and fun) testimonies of ghosts await us, in which even the famous paranormal researcher Iker Jiménez would be interested.

This route was designed and directed by historian Denis Soria since 2020. We are official accredited guides in Asturias. Choose the authentic!
