History

The history of Tapia is recent and until the mid-nineteenth century its territory belonged to Castropol.
In the area, prehistoric materials corresponding to the Lower Paleolithic and typical of the Acheulean culture have been found, indicating the human settlement of the area a long time ago.
Also this territory is one of the most densely occupied by castros, there are nine in total: El Picón and Castello, in Campos and Salave; The Crowns, in La Roda; Las Cercas and the Castles of Pereira, in El Monte; Campo de San Lorenzo and the Castelón del Cornayo, in Serantes, and the Castros or Castro de Represas, in Tapia.

In the year 1154 the territory passes into the hands of the Bishopric of Oviedo, ceded by King Alfonso VII.
In 1580 the confiscation carried out by Felipe II gives the jurisdictional independence to the neighbors of Tapia and Salave. But it will not be until the 19th century when Tapia manages to have its own town hall. Fernando Fernández-Casariego will be the architect of the conversion of Tapia in a village from the primitive village, obtaining that the Government accepted in 1863 the creation of the new council of Tapia, independent of Castropol.

Illustrious characters of the town:
· Gonzalo Méndez de Cancio, was governor of Florida and the introducer in Asturias, at the beginning of the seventeenth century, of corn, which he planted for the first time in the field that was in front of his house.
· Fernando Villamil y Cueto, sailor and hero of the war in Cuba.
· Francisco Pérez Casariego, illustrious of the council.
