La Lluera caves, Cave entrance in San Juan de Priorio, Oviedo, Spain
La Lluera caves consist of two short galleries connected in a V-shaped formation, situated near the Nalón River banks. The system contains several small chambers connected by natural openings throughout the structure.
The caves show traces of human activity from prehistoric times, with evidence of tool manufacturing and repeated use by early communities. These findings suggest the site played an important role in human settlement across generations.
The cave walls display engravings and artistic renderings that reflect different phases of human creativity. These works offer insight into the artistic expression of early communities.
Access is possible only with prior arrangement through the official website or by phone. It is recommended to book early since spaces are limited.
The cave system contains areas that may have been used for ritual practices, revealed through analysis of figurative depictions and niche distributions. These discoveries shed light on the spiritual life of early populations at this location.
