While the main building of the National Archaeological Museum of Tarragona is undergoing long-term renovation, the temporary exhibition at Tinglado 4 in the port offers a well-curated insight into Roman Tarraco. Among the most impressive pieces is a marble relief in the shape of a gladiator’s shield, originally from the Roman villa of Els Munts. Another standout object is an ornate Roman balance scale, which reflects the everyday economy and attention to detail in trade and measurement. The exhibition also includes mosaics, portraits, domestic objects, jewelry and religious iconography each piece selected to show the scope of life in Tarraco, one of the most important Roman cities in Hispania.

The space itself is modern, bright and easy to navigate. Despite being only a temporary venue, the experience feels complete and rewarding. Entry is affordable, and with the MNAT combined ticket you can also visit Els Munts and Centcelles, two Roman villa sites nearby.

This exhibition is absolutely worth a stop for anyone interested in Roman history, archaeology or classical art, especially if you’re following the ancient traces of Tarraco...

Merveilleux musée constituant le témoignage de la grandeur de la Tarragone romaine. Véritable capitale de cette riche province où le culte impérial était dispensé ce qui indique son importance. Les murailles, les plus longues conservées et les autres hauts-lieux tels que l’amphithéâtre donnent une idée de ce qu’était l’Hispanie, une très riche province constellée, d’un nord au sud de cités merveilleuses tels que Séville, Cadix etc....Ceux qui observent ces vestiges et qui connaissent un peu l’histoire de la brillante civilisation romaine, n’auront plus aucun doute sur les monuments que certains attribuent faussement aux arabes, notamment en Andalousie. Tous ces forteresses, jardins, fontaines, villas, palais, ponts hérités des Romains puis attribués à d’autres envahisseurs incultes (les arabes). Il y a aussi les Wisigoths qui ont notamment repris l’arc outrepassé des Romains, pour de nombreux édifices religieux, lesquels ont été souvent détruits par les arabes. Tous le patrimoine espagnol exprime le génie romain, une des pierres angulaires de notre civilisation. N’oubliez pas d’aller voir l’aqueduc qui, comme son semblable à Nîmes est construit de pierres sèches, sans ciment, ce qui indique, si cela était encore nécessaire, l’incroyable technologie et le...

The National Archaeological Museum of Tarragona was a very interesting visit. We got to see many statues and artifacts, which gave us a good impression of the city’s rich history. Overall everything was very well organized. The tickets were reasonably priced, and for what we saw, it felt more than worth it. In general, it was a very nice experience and definitely worth visiting if you are...

Fantastic temporary exhibit of artifacts from the roman period. The information is available in Catalan, Spanish, and English. All the materials are well presented and described. Well worth a visit. They offer studwnt discounts also. The ticket is also valid for the nearby necropolis, which features an intact mausoleum from the 5th century.

Wspaniałe miejsce, które przenosi w czasie! Muzeum Archeologiczne w Tarragonie to prawdziwa perełka dla miłośników historii, sztuki i starożytności. Kolekcja jest imponująca – można zobaczyć oryginalne rzymskie mozaiki, posągi, inskrypcje i wiele przedmiotów codziennego użytku sprzed dwóch tysięcy lat. Wszystko jest doskonale opisane, a ekspozycje zostały przygotowane z wielką dbałością o szczegóły, dzięki czemu zwiedzanie jest nie tylko ciekawe, ale też bardzo przystępne. Samo muzeum jest czyste, przestronne i świetnie zorganizowane. Panuje tu spokojna, przyjemna atmosfera, która pozwala naprawdę wczuć się w klimat dawnej Tarraco – rzymskiego miasta, które kiedyś tętniło życiem. Obsługa jest miła, pomocna i kompetentna, chętnie odpowiada na pytania i służy dodatkowymi informacjami. Dodatkowym plusem jest to, że personel mówi w kilku językach, co bardzo ułatwia zwiedzanie turystom z różnych krajów.
