Abstract
Among the internal reform processes made in the early twentieth century in Oviedo, one of the most important is the transformation undertaken in the Cathedral Square, with the demolition of the houses opposite the church. The main reason that motivates such action is none other than providing a broad perspective to the Cathedral. The arrangement of the square generated controversy, there were two points of view: the first one considered that the low value of the block justified its disappearance, the second one argued that the demolition would remove an arcaded square of great interest, being more suitable the partial perspectives of the church that offered these ensemble of streets. Despite many critics opposed to demolition, it was carried out after approval of the project in 1928.
