The medieval bridge of Recuna is one of the medieval jewels of the Siero council. It gave access to the malataria, an important hospital institution that, in addition to lepers, was able to care for other patients and walkers. In addition, it is located on the route of one of the six main royal roads: the Camino Real from Villaviciosa to Pola de Siero within the Camino de Santiago.

The Recuna Bridge, also called Río Cuna, crosses the Río Cuna between two well-differentiated meanders in the shade of a beautiful alder. There was an important hospital facility very close to Marcenado, which in addition to lepers could also care for other patients and hikers. It is on the floor plan of one of the six main royal streets within the historic walk in Siero: The Camino Real from Villaviciosa to Pola de Siero on the Route des Camino de Santiago: El Castro, Aveno, Vega de Poja, El Rayo, ...

In addition to a recreation and rest area, the important value of medieval construction in beautiful rural surroundings lies at the entrance to the capital of the municipal council Pola de Siero. After it has lost its primitive usefulness, it visually satisfies the passage of pilgrims or hikers from a historical, architectural, economic, aesthetic and symbolic point of view and takes us back to the past with its important transfer of people and goods.
