Garden of the Caudillo Kings.
It was inaugurated in 1942, coinciding with the celebration of the thousand years of the Holy Chamber.
It is attached to the north façade of the Cathedral.
In some gardens and on their walls, most of the Kings of the Asturian Monarchy are represented, with the exception of Alfonso II El Casto, who is located outside the Garden enclosure, between the entrance of the cathedral and the access gate to the gardens. .
The vast majority of the sculptures are the work of Gerardo Zaragoza, although there is also work by Manuel Alvarez Laviada. The sculpture of Alfonso II is the work of Víctor Hevia
Some of the Asturian kings Silo, Aurelio, Bermudo I Mauregato or Ordoño I are missing, as well as the sculpture of Fruela I.
