Yacimiento arqueológico de Camesa-Rebolledo

The Yacimiento arqueológico de Camesa-Rebolledo is a Roman site in Spain's Cantabria region with remains of a villa dating to the 1st century. The complex occupies two main zones: El Conventon in Rebolledo and La Cueva in Camesa, connected by an ancient road that once carried travelers and goods.

The site began as a Roman villa in the 1st century and was later repurposed as a Visigothic burial ground in the 7th century. This transformation reveals how communities adapted old structures to new needs after Rome's decline in the region.

The baths reveal how Romans valued comfort and hygiene in their daily life. Walking through these spaces shows the practical concerns that shaped their architecture and community routines.

The Interpretation Center offers guided tours for groups with scheduling adjusted to seasonal conditions. The site features complete accessibility so visitors of all mobility levels can explore the grounds comfortably.

A milestone fragment discovered here dates to Emperor Trajan Decius, between 249 and 251. This artifact confirms a significant Roman road passed through the area, linking it to larger trade and travel networks of the empire.
