Degaña, Asturias property and area FAQs
Degaña is a municipality in the autonomous community of the Asturias, Spain. It is located in the Cantabrian Mountains, and bordered on the north by Cangas del Narcea, on the south by Castile and León, and on the west by Ibias. Degaña is also the name of one of the three parishes in the municipality, alongside Zarréu and Trabáu. The river Ibias runs through much of the region. Historically, not much is known about Degaña due to its remote location and relative lack of inhabitants. The municipality split off from Ibias in 1863 and took its name from the parish of the same name, which was the largest settlement in the area at the time. During the Spanish Civil War, the Popular Front recorded victories in the area. Post-war, the multiple bituminous coal deposits found in the area allowed coal mining to become the most notable industry in the region; as a consequence, Zarréu overtook Degaña as the most populous parish.
