Things to do Gijon's corners Free Tour

We will begin our walk in the Plaza del Marqués, where the port and the stories of the sea mingle with the figure of Jovellanos, one of the great names of Gijón. From there we will approach the Palace of Jovellanos and the Plaza de la Tabacalera, scene of industrial bustle and symbol of women's work in the city. We will talk about the importance of tobacco, life in the factories and the role of women in the neighborhood and in fishing. We will continue to the Soledad Chapel, a place of devotion and neighborhood meeting, and then climb the Cerro de Santa Catalina, a place full of history, art and legends. There we will discover how ancient Celtic traditions intertwine with Christian beliefs that shaped the spirit of Gijón. We will end at the Church of San Pedro, facing the Bay of Biscay, evoking the fish auction, the days at sea and the deep relationship of the neighborhood with the ocean. More than a tour of monuments, this tour is an invitation to get to know the soul of Cimavilla: its people, its customs and its unique way of living Gijón.
