In these first Lucentum Historical Recreation Days, the MARQ aims to bring this Roman city, the origin of Alicante, to all our visitors with the aim of giving value to the site and making our Roman past acquire its full meaning.
During the weekend of 16th and 17th July you can discover what life was like in Roman times in Lucentum at the Tossal de Manises (Albufereta - Alicante). The archaeological site, the most visited in the Comunitat, will relive everyday events such as the awakening of a magistrate, the daily hygiene, Salutatio of clients, religious ceremonies, the taking of auspices, military parades, gladiatorial fights, etc. All this in a magnificent setting that will transport us back in time thanks to MARQ.
The capacity of the activities will be limited to a maximum of 250 people. The opening hours will coincide with those of the historical re-enactment activities.
The single ticket price is €2, and tickets can be purchased at the MARQ ticket offices, at the Lucentum archaeological site itself and through Instanticket.
For students participating in the MARQ Summer Campaign 2016free of charge.
