Oppidum of Arrola, Archaeological site in Kortezubi, Spain.

The Oppidum of Arrola stands on Mount Arrola summit, featuring defensive walls, gates, and moats that form a complete fortified settlement structure.

Built approximately 2,300 years ago during the Iron Age II period, this fortified settlement protected local populations along the Eastern Cantabrian Sea.

The Arrolagune interpretation center displays artifacts, informative panels, and a full-size reconstruction of an ancient regional dwelling from the Iron Age period.

Visitors can access guided tours of the archaeological site during summer months and explore the interpretation center on weekend mornings throughout the year.

The site integrates archaeological heritage with modern mountain biking trails, connecting to a 10.6-kilometer loop that includes the Medieval bridge of Artzubi.
