Augusta Bilbilis, Roman archaeological ruins in Calatayud, Spain.

Located on the heights of Cerro de Bambola, the remains include a forum, theatre, thermal baths, and temple from the ancient Roman settlement.

Augusta Bilbilis emerged from a Celtiberian settlement and grew into a significant Roman administrative center with 3,000 to 4,000 inhabitants during its peak.

The site holds great archaeological value through its architectural elements, urban planning, and numerous artifacts that document daily life in Roman Hispania.

Visitors can access the archaeological site through the Zaragoza gate in Calatayud, following the direction to Huermeda and Embid de la Ribera.

The ancient city was the birthplace of the Latin poet Martial and was later abandoned, leading to the establishment of Calatayud 6 kilometers away.
