Tomis ruins

Tomis ruins are the archaeological remains of an ancient city on the Black Sea coast with preserved walls, towers, and streets. The structures display Roman and Greek building elements that developed across different periods of construction.

Greek merchants from Miletus founded the city in the 6th century BC, and it later became a provincial capital under Roman rule. This development shaped the structures and importance of the place across subsequent centuries.

The site holds meaning as a place where different peoples met and lived together over centuries. Visitors can see how Greeks, Romans, and local groups shaped the character of this settlement through their daily presence and choices.

The site lies within modern Constanța and is easily accessible, with direct access to excavated structures near the waterfront. Visitors can explore the remains and findings at their own pace while enjoying proximity to the seaside promenade.

The site preserves a 4th-century basilica with a vast mosaic floor bordered by colorful marble walls. This artwork reveals the skilled craftsmanship and prosperity the city enjoyed during that era.
