Iluro, Archaeological site in Mataró, Spain.

The archaeological site reveals urban structures, defensive walls, and public buildings from an ancient Roman settlement that covered 6 hectares of land.

Founded between 80-70 BCE, Iluro developed into a major Roman administrative center for the Maresme region during Emperor Augustus reign.

The excavated remains include residential areas with decorated mosaics, thermal baths, and water storage systems that demonstrate Roman architectural techniques.

Visitors can join guided tours every Saturday at 12:00 from September to June, and at 19:00 from June to September.

The site contains preserved sections of the Roman forum, market areas, and an underground network of sewers beneath modern Mataró's historic center.
