Aqueduct of Segovia

Segovia

The Romans built it around the late 1st or early 2nd century to bring water from the Frío river into the city. It is made of granite blocks fitted together without mortar, and at Plaza del Azoguejo, its tallest section, it reaches about 28 metres.

It is one of the best-preserved Roman aqueducts in the world and, together with Segovia's old town, has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1985.
