A lot to see
Sagunto is an indispensable reference point in history, not only in Spain but in the whole of the Mediterranean. The Carthaginians and Romans fought for its control, and the outcome of this confrontation was decisive in the development of European and world history.
To walk through its streets is to move to the past, to the origin of the Iberian oppidum of Arse, to Hannibal’s siege in 219 B.C., to the Roman conquest and to the flourishing of the city named municipium. It is to see how when the Arabs conquer it they show their respect by naming it Morbyter, “old walls” or “veteran walls”. It is to see how the city grows and becomes a city-factory with an industrial past that is a reference in Spain.
The Roman theater or the door of the circus, the Ermita de Sangre, of baroque style, the Portal de la Judería, of medieval time, La Casa dels Berenguers, gothic palace of the XIV century or the Horno Alto nº 2 are examples of a city that releases culture by its four sides, and whose celebrations of Moors and Christians are essential if one wants to live the city of authentic way.
Let a certified guide show you Sagunto as you could never have imagined.
