Wegeltena
Wegeltena is a town in northern Ethiopia. Located in the Semien Wollo Zone of the Amhara Region, this town has a latitude and longitude of with an elevation of 2555 meters above sea level.
On 29 January 1990 Wegeltena was bombed by the aircraft of the Derg, which killed two people. John Graham passed through the town about ten years later, and wrote in the Addis Tribune that he found it "a remote and decayed spot, with one of those awful Dergue era metal towers in the main square, this one unusually decrepit. However, we had a pleasant luncheon there."
Situated on the main road between Dessie and Amba Mariam and Lalibela, Wegeltena is expected to become a communication link between these historical places.
