Small Visigothic settlement ... Very interesting to know how they lived at this time ... We liked it a lot. The environment, very beautiful.
Reservoir with great potential. It is free and can be visited at any time. Highly recommended and pleasant your visit
At Hoyo de Manzanares, about twenty kilometers from Madrid within the Cuenca Alta del Manzanares Regional Park, there is this modest but interesting archaeological site. It was discovered a few decades ago, excavations began in 2005 within the local cemetery and led to the discovery of a Visigoth necropolis and remains from the late Roman period.
In the external sector to the cemetery, fenced but free access, you can see the remains of houses, where were found a few objects, a manual mill for grains, hearths were identified.
The cultural association El Poderal is today in charge of maintaining the site and has been contributing since 2014 to annual excavation campaigns that also involve volunteers.
What to say, a modest site that can be pleasant to visit during a walk in a protected area with a characteristic landscape.
As a place of cultural interest it is fine, but it is a rather falsified recreation. It is advertised more for marketing than for real importance.
Free, it is next to the Cemetery. There is a park for hiking.
