Tema arqueología

In Galera, the past unfolds with every step. A street between houses, a pottery vessel or a burial chamber offers a glimpse of the people who once lived here: how they lived, what they built and how they remembered their dead.

Begin at the Galera Archaeological Museum, where objects give a human dimension to this history. Then explore Castellón Alto and imagine life in a Bronze Age settlement, its houses stepping up the hillside above the valley. At the Iberian necropolis of Tútugi, burial mounds and chambers reveal another way of understanding life and death.

Cerro del Real, the site of the ancient town of Tútugi, adds to this picture through its interpretive content. Follow the stories of each place, pause over the small details and discover how a single landscape preserves traces of different ages.
