Calle Real

In this street we can observe numerous houses of marine style. They are three-story buildings, in which the first floor is used as a cellar, the second floor as a dwelling, while on the second floor are located the rooms. The entrance to the houses was through the cellars, or through the back of the buildings directly to the second floor, due to the unevenness of the terrain. Almost all the houses had salt wells installed in their cellars as a means of subsistence. In these cellars, the fishermen even raised pigs during the time when they did not go to sea due to bad weather, and then sold them at the market in Colunga.
