Segóbriga, Roman archaeological complex in Saelices, Spain

The archaeological site of Segobriga contains essential Roman public buildings, including a theater, amphitheater, forum, and basilica on a hilltop location.

The settlement evolved from a Celtiberian fortress into a Roman municipality during the reign of Augustus, becoming the capital of this region around 70 BCE.

The site maintains its original Roman-era landscape without modern urban development, presenting all architectural elements of a complete Roman administrative and social center.

The archaeological park includes a modern interpretation center with parking facilities, reception area, exhibition halls, and audiovisual rooms for visitors.

The site controlled the mining of lapis specularis, a translucent gypsum material Romans used as window glass throughout their empire.
