Hurbat Castra, Archaeological ruins in southern Haifa, Israel
The excavation site contains remains of ancient buildings, oil presses, and industrial structures from the Roman and Byzantine periods near Mount Carmel.
Archaeological findings from the 4th to 7th centuries CE reveal a Roman-Byzantine settlement that specialized in large-scale production of wine and olive oil.
The site forms part of the Road of the Millennia project, which preserves ancient structures by relocating threatened ruins to an outdoor museum environment.
Visitors can explore the archaeological remains through guided tours offered in multiple languages, including Hebrew, English, Arabic, and Spanish.
The nearby Hecht Museum displays artifacts recovered from Hurbat Castra alongside collections featuring works by Monet, Van Gogh, and Modigliani.
