The Roman theater, built between 5 and 1 BC, had a capacity for about 7000 spectators, and was in use until the third century, from which time several buildings were superimposed. In 1988 it was exhumed. With a capacity of about 7000 spectators, it was one of the largest in Roman Hispania, excavated almost entirely in the rock. The Roman Theater Museum, designed by architect Rafael Moneo, takes visitors inside the monument, turning the Roman Theater into its last great hall.
- The Consistorial Palace of Cartagena, also known as Cartagena City Hall, is one of the main modernist buildings of the city, built between 1900 and 1907. It is a triangular building. The façade is made entirely of white marble, and the zinc domes stand out on the roof. The entire exterior is repeatedly decorated with the emblems of the city: the castle of the Conception of the coat of arms of the city, and the mural crown, awarded by the Roman general Scipio Africanus when he took the city of Carthago Nova.

Cerro del Molinete Archaeological ParkThe city of Carthago Nova was one of the most splendid of the Roman Empire. Since Republican times, it had a large amphitheater. The Roman forum of Carthago Nova was located in the center of the city, at the confluence of the main roads and between the mountains. The forum was located approximately under the current San Francisco square and has been partially excavated. Among the main monuments of the forum that have been found so far are: - Temple dedicated to the Capitoline triad: Jupiter, Juno and Minerva. - The augusteum. - The curia, seat of the government of the colony. - Baths and palestra of the low imperial period. - The temple of Isis.

Punic WallAt the Punic Wall you will enter one of the most important episodes in the history of the Mediterranean, the Punic Wars between the Carthaginians and the Romans. You will learn about the legendary past of Qart Hadast founded by General Asdrubal in 229 BC and its most significant site, the wall, one of the few Carthaginian remains found in Spain. In addition, next to the wall, you can see the burial crypt of the hermitage of San Jose built in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Its walls offer a very peculiar pictorial program, the Dances of Death.
