Monuments
Son típicas las bodegas destinadas antiguamente a la elaboración y conservación del vino. Actualmente están en desuso y algunas se han transformado en merenderos. También eran típicos de esta localidad los palomares, aunque en la actualidad solo quedan íntegros dos.
Meteorito de Ardón:
El 9 de julio de 1931, a las 9.30 horas una bola de fuego sobrevoló la provincia de León, generando una serie de estallidos que se escucharon tanto desde la capital como desde otras localidades como Boñar y Cistierna. El meteorito cayó en Ardón y se trata de una condrita ordinaria del grupo L6 procedente de un asteroide desconocido que ŕecibió el mismo nombre: Ardón. El meteorito estuvo guardado por una persona de la localidad durante 83 años. Finalmente fue donado al Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales del CSIC, en Madrid.
