Muséu del Pueblu d'Asturies (Museum of the People of Asturias)
Muséu del Pueblu d'Asturies (Museum of the People of Asturias) Review
Across the river on the eastern edge of town, past Parque Isabel la Católica, this rustic museum contains traditional Asturian houses, cider presses, a mill, and an exquisitely painted granary. Also here is the Museo de la Gaita (Bagpipe Museum). This collection of wind instruments illustrates their evolution both around the world and within Asturias.
