Tinéu, Municipal administrative division in western Asturias, Spain.
Tinéu is a municipal council in western Asturias that covers mountainous terrain with peaks reaching 1,532 meters. The settlement sits along an important pilgrimage route with pilgrim accommodations for travelers.
King Alfonso IX granted the settlement a Town Charter in 1222, establishing it as a key location on the medieval pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. This charter marked a turning point in the area's development.
The Palace of Los Garcia with its medieval round tower now serves as the town's Cultural House, showing how historic buildings here have been adapted for modern community use. Such structures define the character of the settlement and reflect layers of different periods.
Two pilgrim shelters here serve visitors walking the Northern Way, a popular hiking route through the area. It's worth checking accommodation availability ahead of time, as they attract steady visitor traffic.
Plaza de las Campas, now a public square, once held a medieval fortress before becoming the site of Spain's final public execution in 1899. The transformation of this space from fortification to square marks a shift in how communities gathered.
