Romeins Theater Malaga 1970´s

Dit oude Romeinse theater in Málaga is niet het grootse Romeinse theater dat in Spanje is gevonden maar het is wel een van de oudste Romeinse theaters.

Romeins Theater Malaga ´s avonds

Zover men na kan gaan is het al in de eerste eeuw voor Christus gebouwd, dit was nog ten tijde van keizer Augustus het theater werd gebruikt tot einde van de derde eeuw. En er worden nog steeds nieuwe voorwerpen uit de Romeinse tijd bij opgravingen gevonden.

Bij de opgravingen van het Romeins theater is men tot de conclusie gekomen dat een deel van het theater niet meer aanwezig is. Zowel de Romeinen als de Moorse overheersers hebben delen van het Teatro Romano verbouwd.

Romeins Theater Malaga nu

Een deel van het theater is gebruikt voor de bouw van het Alcazaba. In het Moorse fort zijn marmeren Romeinse pilaren gebruikt van het Romeinns theater.  Hoe het Theatro Romano er ongeveer uit gezien moet hebben is nog wel goed zichtbaar.
