Torre de Riaño

Langreo, Spain, Spain

---

The Torre de Riaño is a 19th-century tower in the Riañu residential area of Langreo, Asturias, Spain, near the Palacio de Camposagrado and separated by a road.

 Featuring a square plan with three floors, it includes a ground level with escarzano arches and a vaulted ceiling on pechinas, upper floors with lintelled openings and wooden elements, and a top attic under a four-sided pyramidal roof, accessed via the second floor amid harmoniously placed windows.

Not originally defensive or a dwelling tower due to its low elevation, it may have overlooked the modified Nalón River course, stands as private property declared a Bien de Interés Cultural alongside the palace since 1995, and is not open to the public, with nearby structures like a stone lagar and old Guardia Civil quarters adding historical context.
