Punic Wall (Cartagena)
In this archaeological site, one can see one of the few defence constructions whose remains have managed to survive until today. It was originally built in the third century BC with sandstone blocks.
This construction was a work of the Carthaginians and witnessed a historical event as important as the Second Punic War. Next to this wall is the funerary crypt of the Hermitage of Saint Joseph, belonging to the 16th and 17th centuries.
