Necrópole of at least 5 tombs cut into the rocks, spread around an area of several hundred square meters. From Malpartida there are signs guiding you to the necrópole, which will take you to a dirt road where you can park your car. After walking a few hundred meters, there is a sign marking the entrance to the field with the tombs, and you will have to move a barbed wire gate to access the field.
The coordinates correspond to a group of several tombs, which can be found beneath a small grove of trees. There is another grave located at 40.767666, -6.887436, and possibly others in the area, though you will need to search for them.
