Sagrado Corazon de Jesus stands high on Monte Naranco, watching over Oviedo from the ridge north of the city. The statue itself is plain enough, but the position makes it a useful target for walkers and drivers looking for the full bowl of Oviedo and the Asturian hills beyond.
Think of it as a viewpoint with a monument attached. It combines well with the pre-Romanesque churches lower on Naranco, especially if you want a half-day that moves from UNESCO stonework to open skyline.
