Roman Museum

The museum collects the culture material that has been recovered in the archaeological excavations carried out in the city and surroundings.

It has an important epigraphic collection, highlighting several tombstones belonging to soldiers, augurs, slaves and freedmen. The Pompeian paintings discovered by D. José María Luengo in the middle of last century are also exhibited.

The Roman Numismatic is represented by several examples, among which is an aureus of the Emperor Tiberius and a treasury of denarii. Ceramic pieces of different qualities and jewels of the male and female trousseau can be seen.

The museum stands on a arched portico, traditionally known as “the Ergástula”, which was part of a heritage building located in the center of the forum of the ancient city.
