Tarragona

Roman heritage by the sea

Tarragone preserves an impressive Roman legacy, with its amphitheatre, circus and ancient walls forming a unique archaeological ensemble overlooking the Mediterranean. In the Serrallo district, you can sample arrossejat or romesco before wandering through the old town or enjoying the Balcó del Mediterrani.

A UNESCO World Heritage site, ancient Tarraco was one of the most important Roman cities on the Iberian Peninsula. Today, its historic remains coexist with a vibrant city full of museums, markets and cultural life all year round.

La Rambla Nova, the Central Market and the Serrallo neighborhood are essential stops for discovering the true character of this city by the sea — a spirit preserved for more than two thousand years.
