Teatro Romano

The ruins of the Roman theater of Malaga, lying at the foot of the Spanish-Moorish fortress Alcazaba and Gibralfaro Castle, can become for you  an interesting stop during a walk,  a charming place,  where you can breathe while reading a book, or a point that you just want to keep coming back to

and admire.  

 

The theater was built in the first century BC during the reign of Augustus I and served its inhabitants until the third century AD. 

It was not discovered until 1951.  

 

Since 2002, the Roman Theater in Malaga has been implementing an archaeological project to study its ancient roots and enable the inhabitants to

and tourists  learning  and  experiencing  history. To make this possible, a building was built  new  Visitors' Center in the form of a pavilion  with an area of 172 square meters, which  it is to perform two basic functions: to accumulate  and to present the results of archaeological research in a form accessible to the general public, as well as to provide support for the conducted research.  Few of arriving tourists know that the entrance to the Center is free,  and it is worth visiting it, if only to take a closer look at Roman remnants of history.  

 

It is also worth returning to the Romano Theater in the evening. The illuminated walls of the Alcazaba and the ancient riune together create an incredibly charming aura.
