Roman Station Villa
The “Roman Villa de la Estación” is located northwest of the current town of Antequera. Although the site has been known since the end of the last century, it will be in 1998, when carrying out the works for the construction of the northern ring road of Antequera, when the archaeological importance of this town is revealed, forcing to divert the route of the road as it passes through the site, even not to conclude the road work at this point.

Butcher of the Moors
Traditionally, this construction has been known as “Butcher of the Moors”. Actually, what we can see today are the remains of some Baths, which undoubtedly belonged to a sumptuous Roman villa, located next to the course of the river of the Villa, and about two kilometers away from the old “municipium”.
