Sena

Village · Sena, Los Monegros, Huesca

Sena is a municipality in the comarca of Los Monegros, in the province of Huesca, at 221 metres above sea level, with 490 inhabitants. It is known for the abundance of prehistoric sites in its municipal area, ranging from the Lower Palaeolithic, with discoidal flint axes, to the Magdalenian, along with Iron Age, Iberian and Roman remains. In the Middle Ages it belonged to the Templars and was later handed over to the Monastery of Sijena by Queen Sancha of Castile. It preserves the town hall, a representative building of Aragonese civil architecture from the second half of the 16th century, and two hermitages, that of the Holy Cross and that of Santa Quiteria. During the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, on 7 October, the Dance of Sena, the village's traditional dance, is performed.
