History

Muros de Nalón is a municipality located in the northern region of Asturias, Spain. It is situated along the Nalón River, which gives the town its name.

Muros de Nalón, like many other towns in the region of Asturias, has a rich history that dates back to ancient times. The area has been inhabited since prehistoric times, with evidence of human settlements and cave art found in nearby caves. Over the centuries, the region has been influenced by various cultures, including the Celts, Romans, and Visigoths.

During the medieval period, Asturias played a significant role in the history of Spain. It was the last stronghold of the Visigoths following the Muslim conquest of the Iberian Peninsula in the 8th century. The region became a refuge for Christian resistance and ultimately led to the Reconquista, a centuries-long process through which Christian kingdoms gradually reclaimed territory from Muslim rule.
