Por tudo isto e muito mais vale a pena a visita, a entrada é gratuita mas o interior não podemos fotografar porque não é permitido. Para além da Câmara Santa, desta primeira construção do reinado de D. Afonso II sobreviveu ainda a torre de estilo românico.
No século XIV começou a nova edificação da Catedral e demorou três séculos a ficar com o aspecto que podemos ver hoje.
Outra das suas grandes atracções é o retablo da capela maior, feito em madeira representa de forma detalhada as várias fases da vida de Cristo, desde o seu nascimento até á sua morte.
For all this and much more its worth to visit it, admission is free but it's interior can not photographed it is not allowed. In addition to the Cámara Santa, from this first building the reign of King Afonso II the Romanesque tower also survived.
In the fourteenth century began the construction of the new cathedral and took three centuries to look like we see it today.
Another of its main attractions is the largest altarpiece in the chapel, made of wood represents in detail the various stages of Christ's life, from his birth until his death.

Junto á fachada principal do lado esquerdo está uma estátua do Rei Afonso II, o Casto. Oviedo foi a cidade que escolheu para ter a sua corte e de ela partiu para combater os mouros.
Não vimos tudo, havia um claustro e um museu mas ficámos apenas pela zona da nave principal e capelas adjacentes.
