It did not intervene in the Battle of Santander, so it was practically intact at the beginning of the Asturias Offensive. By then the 59th Division covered the front that ran from the sea to the mountains, in the Oviedo sector. During the Asturias campaign it did not have a relevant role, remaining in its positions without intervening in relevant military operations. At the end of October 1937 it managed to retire to Gijón, where it dissolved itself.
