The Roman villa of Centcelles is located in the municipality of Constantí, in Catalonia. It contains a masterpiece of Early Christian Art.
The oldest remains of Centcelles are from a small rural building from the 2nd-1st century BC, which later in the 3rd century AD became a magnificent villa with a baths complex. The most notable area is the closed circular room with a dome where the 4th-century mosaics are found. These are considered to be the oldest Christian-themed dome mosaics of the Roman world and are exceptional for their good state of preservation. They represent several scenes, organised into three areas: a hunt on the lower section, biblical scenes from the Old and the New Testament in the central part and figures of the four seasons at the top.
