The Dolmen of Guadalperal

The dolmen of Guadalperal is not alone in its liquid tomb. On the course itself of the River Tagus, other reservoirs have flooded more vestiges of the earliest cultures that built great architectural works… Five thousand years ago, or even before that, a very strong belief system drove its construction, the almost titanic effort to work, move and assemble its large stone parts. And in 1925, just a few decades ago, the impressive structure was excavated and brought to light. The dolmen was revealed as never before in the summer of 2019 and is inundated with visitors until the water returns. Experts tell us its intense story.
