The Roman Walls of Lugo (Spanish Galician: Muralla Romana de Lugo) were constructed in the 3rd Century and are still largely intact today stretching over 2 kilometers around the historic centre of Lugo in Galicia (Spain). The fortifications were inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in late 2000 as the finest example of late Roman fortifications in western Europe. The walls have also held Spanish monument status (Bien de Interés Cultural) since 1921.
