The Punic Wall

This small museum shows an ancient piece of Cartagena history. The Punic wall surrounded the city in the 3rd century BC. The ability to admire relics that are 2500 years old is not an everyday experience. This is why I recommend this place. The museum is partially wheelchair accessible.

The video at the beginning and having visited some of the other museums helped appreciate this more. Great crypt.

very nice museum, the short video they play will make you understand the city history..I recommend visiting it as a first spot when arriving to the city

I would visit the ancient Punic Wall museum. This was portions of the wall constructed to defend the city from Roman attacks. The museum makes it possible to view the double wall with rooms and ammo storage within the thick wall. You can also see the actual crypt that was uncovered when this section of the wall was uncovered. You can't go down into the crypt at this time as they are still working on architecture dig in this area. This is the only way to view the actual ancient wall and crypt. We did this museum as part of the tour of Cartagena Spain through Princess Cruises.

Small interpretation center for the Punic Rampart. The historical video was informative and well made. There was a temporary exhibit with Indiana Jones movie memorabilia which was fun. The exhibits were well curated and really worth the £3,50 entry fee.

Excellent place to learn about the history of the city AND the Punic Wall. There's a video which is informative. After the visit you can actually see what the wall meant. And you will quickly understand why museum looks odd from the outside.

We visited here whilst on a cruise and spent a pleasant hour wandering around the exhibit. A short film is played at the onset to give you background information on the carthagenian struggle with the Romans. The catacombs are quite eerie to view especially with the skeleton murals. The glass flooring provides an extra dimension to the atmosphere.

Amazing part of history heritage
