Museo del Foro de Caesaraugusta, Archaeological museum in Plaza de la Seo, Zaragoza, Spain.
The Museo del Foro de Caesaraugusta displays Roman forum remains across multiple underground levels, including original foundations, sewers, and architectural fragments from the ancient city. The excavations lie directly beneath the modern surface, revealing how the forum was organized.
The preserved Roman forum structures date from the first century, when Emperor Augustus established this city as an important administrative center. The remains reveal the importance of this location within the region's administrative and trade networks.
The museum hosts regular theater performances and exhibitions exploring the lives and roles of women in Roman times. These events take place within the spaces where ancient structures surround visitors directly.
The museum has multiple underground levels accessible by stairs and elevators, with clear signage in various languages. Audioguides and short video presentations help visitors navigate through the excavations.
The modern museum building has an unusual diamond-shaped form that deliberately contrasts with the ancient structures below. This architectural opposition shows how contemporary design can frame the remains of the past.
