The charming little village church, dedicated to Saint James (Spanish Santiago), is located right along the coastal route of the Camino de Santiago del Norte. The little village offers pilgrims a welcome break along the hilly journey. It also boasts some beautifully built wooden traditional stilted grain storages.

This place of worship in Nuviana is dedicated to James the Elder (Santiago), who is probably (besides Peter and Paul) the most prominent apostle and national saint of Spain. The European network of Ways of Saint James, usually marked by the symbol of the yellow shell on a blue background, leads pilgrims to his tomb. This is in the northern Spanish town of 'Santiago de Compostella', where he rests in a magnificent basilica built in his honor.
The martyrdom (execution) of James is handed down by the evangelist Luke in the New Testament "Acts of the Apostles". The feast day of Saint James in the calendar of saints is July 25th.

The Iglesia de Santiago Apóstol, Nuviana is a place of worship dedicated to James the Greater, one of the most important apostles and national saints of Spain. It is one of the many sights you can visit in the Cudillero region, in Asturias. The church has a simple but elegant architecture, with a rectangular floor plan, a gable roof and a bell tower. The interior is decorated with paintings, statues and other religious objects. The church is part of the Camino de Santiago, a pilgrimage route that leads to the saint's grave in Santiago de Compostela.
