This elegant 17th-century building, set around two superposed cloisters, was originally home to the University of Oviedo鈥檚 schools of Arts, Theology & Law. Nowadays it鈥檚 an administrative house and library, but well worth a wander. In the centre sits the majestic statue of Fernando de Vald茅s Salas, the university鈥檚 founder, while the arcaded cloister鈥檚 columns still bear bullet holes from the civil war.
