Located near Murcia Spain, the Cartagena Roman Theatre Museum is an impressive building designed by Rafael Moneo, a renowned Spanish architect.
Traveling via a system of escalators and a feature-rich, underground passageway that exists just beneath a ruined cathedral, this museum leads to the Roman theater that dates back to the first century B.C., and that has been recently restored. With its minimalist layout, the museum offers a chronological look back at the fascinating history of Cartagena through pottery, statues, and many other artifacts that have been reclaimed from the original site.
Overall, it is an effort to integrate the remains of this early theater into the modern fabric of Spain by preserving and exhibiting these items for both cultural and educational purposes.
