Archaeological Itinerary
This is the base of all archeological activity in the city and its district. Opened in 1982, the museum is built over the late 4th century Roman necropolis of San Antón; it contains one of the most important collections of inscriptions in the country.
Baroque and Neoclassical Itinerary
Built during the 18th century and renovated in the 19th and 20th centuries, its façade remains unfinished to this day. The original plan was to build a church of cathedral proportions, the natural successor to Santa María la Vieja. The most architecturally-significant sculptures inside are the medieval image of the Virgin of the Rosell (former patron saint of the city) and the figures of the Four Saints, the work of Salzillo. The Holy Week processions have begun from this building ever since its construction in the 18th century.
Modernist Route and Eclectic
The façade is the only reminder of the house's original design, was inspired by the Casa Calvet by Gaudí with a few touches of Baroque. The Rococo decorations around the main door, the belvedere and windows in the central section are especially notable
Contemporary gallery
Gisbert Street, built across the Cartagena hill, was opened in 1878, thereby connecting Cartagena to the sea. A lift now carries passengers up the 45m elevation, replacing the natural route which was swallowed up with the excavation work.
