Though the sights of Villaviciosa are far from spectacular in the Spanish scheme of things, the surrounding area is dotted with some of Asturias’ oldest churches. The main attraction is the Iglesia de San Salvador de Valdediós, a Pre-Romanesque jewel built in the ninth century during the reign of King Alfonso III. The king is said to have been detained here after his sons had dispossessed him. The Romanesque Iglesia y Monasterio de Santa María is next to the earlier church.
