Forum

Spain / Cadiz / Tarifa /
Although the original forum in Baelo must date back to the Augustan period, the fundamental nucleus of the forum area that we see today was remodelled between the years 50 and 70 BC (Claudius and Nero). It has a rectangular-shaped square, housing the city's most important buildings. It has porticos on the east and west sides, with shops in the first part and administrative buildings in the second. To the south is the basilica and to the north is a monumental fountain and some temples.
