Iberian citadel of Calafell

The Iberian citadel of Calafell stands out because in 1992, after several years of archaeological excavations brought about by Santacana and Joan Sanmartí, a project was created to reconstruct the archaeological findings which at first were called Alorda Park. They tried to recreate it as it had been in the past using an experimental archaeological method so as to recreate the interior of the findings by using replicas of objects found in the excavations. This excavation is believed to belong to the second Iron Age and was home to a tribe known as the Cossetano.
