Poblado Ibérico / Poblat Ibèric - Site

A short distance from the entrance to the site are the walls on the west side of the town, with six large round towers set at fairly regular intervals of 30m/100ft. In this area too there are six gates through the walls.

The best place to start the tour of the site is Gate 1. From here a broad street (Street 1) leads to the upper town or acropolis, on the highest point of which is the Museum. Excavation has made most progress in this area, just inside the town walls. Here and there are large shafts driven vertically into the ground which no doubt served as store-rooms and cisterns.

To the left of Street 1 is a residential district (Predis subirana), also with the foundations of buildings and a cistern. In the upper town the remains of two temples have also been excavated. The area farther north is not yet open to the public.
