About
Tarraco was a significant Roman city, now modern Tarragona, Spain, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its extensive Roman ruins. These include structures like the Pont del Diable (Les Ferreres aqueduct). The site is newsworthy due to recent initiatives aimed at better protecting and managing its historical remains. A new consortium, comprising the Generalitat, the Tarragona City Council, and the Agència Catalana del Patrimoni Cultural, has been established to improve the management of Tarraco's Roman heritage. This consortium aims to generate opportunities for the city through improved heritage management. The Pont del Diable, a prominent aqueduct, is specifically undergoing environmental protection measures to combat degradation, highlighting the ongoing efforts to preserve Tarraco's historical legacy.
