May 13, 2026, Roman Arch of Cáparra

Freely accessible site, plenty of foundations and explanation in English and the beautiful square arch

Cáparra was once a walled city with suburbs, but it was not a very important ancient city. Not much of the city remains, except for some ruins and an arch. The site is fortunately free to visit and there are signs in English.

Villanueva de La Sierra is famous for its "Fiesta del Árbol" that began more than 200 years ago. During the big party trees are planted and local food and wine are served.
