A prominent landmark in Noceco is the Iglesia Virgen del Rosario, a historicist neo-Gothic church dating from 1906. For travel planning, different areas of interest can be considered alongside one another: local history, gaming tradition, culture in the regional surroundings and nature on a larger scale.

Culture and History

Local history includes the school and the teacher's house. The teacher's house next to the school in Noceco was built on 4 December 1889 as a schoolhouse for primary education and as the teacher's residence. The school in Noceco was founded in 1889 and built in 1914.

In the wider regional surroundings of Noceco lies the Museo De Las Tres Villas Pasiegas, a museum. Also located in the wider regional surroundings is the Iglesia de San Vicente de Añes, a church.

Anyone wishing to explore a place through different themes can consider local history, regional cultural destinations and connections with nature separately. This arrangement creates room for different interests without mixing the individual focal points.

In addition, the places San Pelayo and El Ribero can be considered.

Traditions

The bowling alley in Noceco was reconstructed in 1960 over an earlier bowling alley. In the special style of play at the Noceco bowling alley, it was not primarily the distance but the height reached by the pins that was assessed. In Pasabolo Tablón, a wooden ball is thrown over a board at three wooden pins, which are meant to jump into a marked area.

For travel planning, this area can be classified as a separate cultural focus alongside architectural and school history. Such topics can be given different weight within a jointly planned trip, depending on whether the focus is more strongly on history, regional customs or the landscape.

Nature

Natural monuments, nature parks and mountains represent different geographical scales. For your own planning, it is helpful to consider these nature-related topics individually and classify their respective reach in relation to Noceco.

The spatial gradation supports clear planning: destinations in Noceco itself, destinations in the wider regional surroundings and mountains in the area represent different scales. Nature, culture and local history can be weighted according to your own interests.

The mountains Alto de Zalama and Alto de Imunia are located in the surroundings of Noceco. In the wider regional surroundings of Noceco lie the summit Pico de la Churra and the mountain Castro Valnera.
