San Julián de los Prados, also known as Santullano, is a Pre-Ramirense church from the beginning of the 9th century in Oviedo, the capital city of the Principality of Asturias. It is one of the greatest works of Asturian art and was declared an Historical-Artistic Monument by the Spanish Ministry of Culture in 1917 and a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1998. It is the largest and one of the oldest churches in the Asturian Pre-Romanesque period. The interior of this church is home to the best-preserved mural paintings from the 9th century in Europe.
