The Tumular Complex of Quintana de Toranzo, located at the foot of the aforementioned Mount Tejas and immersed in the Pas Valley, is made up of four known structures and was discovered in 1986 by members of the Department of Historical Sciences of the University of Cantabria .
The Quintana I
We are facing the largest structure in the complex, around 26.5 meters in diameter on its North/South axis and 24 meters on its East/West axis. It is made up of earth and sandstone. Its maximum height, today, is about 3.40 meters since it has suffered some recesses in its westernmost part.
