En uno de sus valles recorrido por el río Iregua, está el Camero Nuevo, tierra de bosques, pastizales, cumbres y pequeños valles, donde se sitúan 13 pueblos con historia, tradiciones y leyendas, que siglos atrás se agruparon bajo la denominación de Hermandad de las 13 Villas.
One of the most representative buildings in Nieva is the complex of the Schools, an important educational construction that is used today as a youth hostel, owned by the Logroño City Hall.
This place was built in 1925 by the local benefactors Mr. Luciano Bueno and is wife Mrs. María Martínez de Pinillos, who devoted it to Saint Benito and Saint Francisca, being governed by the Brothers of the Christian Schools. It is necessary to emphasize the importance of education in Sierra de Cameros, which made several of its emigrant children to finance schools.
