Mausoleum of Centcelles, Roman mausoleum in Constantí, Spain
The Mausoleum of Centcelles is a circular building with a dome covered in detailed mosaics arranged in three horizontal bands. These mosaics display various scenes and figures that were skillfully set into the vault.
The structure began as a rural building in the 2nd century BC and was later converted into a villa. In the 4th century, it was transformed into a mausoleum to serve as a burial place.
The mosaics show hunting scenes, biblical stories, and seasonal imagery that blend Roman art with early Christian symbols. These images reveal what people believed in and how they lived during that time.
The mausoleum is easy to reach and requires no special preparation to visit. Plan enough time to slowly view the intricate mosaic details and explore the structure at a relaxed pace.
This archaeological site contains some of the oldest surviving Christian mosaics from the Roman period, made up of roughly a million individual pieces. The mosaic art shows how early Christians expressed their beliefs through Roman artistic forms.
