Spain Castro de Barona
Lovely ruins of ancient Galicians village by the sea.
The approximately 20 roundhouses were used by Celts around two thousand years ago. The site is idyllically located and relatively easy to defend on a small peninsula in the sea, connected to the mainland by an isthmus. It is protected as a cultural heritage site.
