Ancient Dolmen De Tella: A Time Defying Relic

Buried in the past yet standing tall today, the ancient dolmen de Tella is a testament to survival.

The dolmen de Tella, a well-preserved archaeological site located in Tella, Spain, was identified in 1954 by archaeologist Antonio Beltrán. Its stunning conservation is a testament to the skills of the ancient builders and its luck in avoiding erosion. Visitors can find the dolmen de Tella along a popular road, visible from a rest area on the road that goes from the A-138 highway to the town of Tella. The surrounding tumulus, once vast, has almost disappeared, but the dolmen itself, with its well-preserved structure, remains standing.
