Oscar Niemeyer International Cultural Centre

The Oscar Niemeyer International Cultural Centre or Centro Niemeyer (SpanishCentro Cultural Internacional Oscar Niemeyer), (popularly known as el Niemeyer), is the result of the combination of a cultural complex designed by the Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer and an international cultural project. The center is located on the estuary of Avilés, Asturias (Spain). It was inaugurated on 26 May 2011.

The architect described the Niemeyer Centre as "An open square to the humankind, a place for education, culture and peace".[1]

The buildings can be seen from many different places including the air. Its size and white, red and yellow colors highlight its location in the landscape of the town.
