Tito Bustillo Cave
Cueva de Tito Bustillo
A Paleolithic rock-art cave in Ribadesella, a World Heritage site where paintings of horses, deer and other animals from about 20,000 years ago can be seen.
The cave is part of the World Heritage site 'Paleolithic Cave Art of Northern Spain'. It was discovered in 1968, and its main panel shows horses, reindeer and red symbols painted one over another.
To protect the paintings, daily entry is limited, so book online in advance. The cave is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. The Rock Art Research Center, open year-round, displays replicas and exhibitions.
It is located in the seaside town of Ribadesella, about 30 km from Cangas de Onís.
