La Malena, Roman archaeological site in Azuara, Spain
The archaeological complex spans across 50 meters on each side, featuring a quadrangular layout centered around a main courtyard with extensive mosaic floors.
Inhabited between the 1st and 5th centuries CE, La Malena villa revealed numerous artifacts including bronze rings, coins, and glass objects during excavations from 1988 to 1992.
The site contains over 1000 square meters of mosaics, including the notable Marriage of Cadmus and Harmonia mosaic, constructed with marble limestone and glass paste.
The archaeological site offers guided tours and includes visitor facilities, a parking area, and a recreational space near the Camaras River.
The Friends of La Malena Association formed in 2016 to protect the site, leading to the establishment of a dedicated museum in Azuara in 2017.
