ROMAN CATACOMBS OF XAROLLA

Dating from the 3rd and 4th centuries, these catacombs have still not been fully excavated. However, excavations carried out in the 1990s indicate that they were used as a cemetery for a group of Christians living in the first centuries of the Christian era. In the Xarolla complex, the window tomb is the most common format. It is estimated that most of the tombs date from the Late Roman or Byzantine period.
