Juliobriga, former urban centre in Roman Cantabria
Juliobriga is an archaeological site in Campoo de Enmedio that preserves remains of a Roman city and settlement. The excavated areas reveal building foundations, street layouts, and defensive structures that show how the community was organized and inhabited during ancient times.
The settlement developed during Roman times as a trading and administrative center in the region. It was abandoned in later periods, though archaeological findings reveal it was inhabited continuously across several centuries.
The site sits on a hillside with views across the surrounding landscape. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes since the terrain is uneven and some areas require careful footing.
The name likely comes from Julius Caesar or one of his commanders, linking the place directly to a pivotal figure in Roman history. This connection reminds visitors how conquest and rule shaped the ancient landscape.
