Archaeological Park of Segóbriga

The Segóbriga archaeological park is an important Celts and Roman site located around the so-called hill of Cabeza de Griego in the town of Saelices (Cuenca, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain). Asset of Cultural Interest declared a National Monument on June 3, 1931.

Despite the fact that the city is in ruins, its state of conservation is more than acceptable, compared to other remains located on the peninsula.
