Llíria, Spain

Spain

Llíria, Spain shares 33 connections with 4881 other places across 14 topics, reaching from Roman archaeology to religious festivals and sports. Connections with Italy and Greece reflect the city's deep Mediterranean roots: Roman troops destroyed the town in 76 BC, and a hoard of some 6,000 silver denarii known as the Treasure of Carrer Duc de Llíria now sits in Madrid's National Archaeological Museum. A Franciscan friar founded the city's first band, the Banda Primitiva, in 1819, and the town later hosted Olympic handball qualification in 2020.
