A seaside estate built in the Augustan period, rebuilt in the 2nd century, burned and wrecked in the middle of the 3rd, and still occupied into the 7th century AD. What survives is the residential wing with its mosaics and wall painting, plus a large bath complex with marble revetment and statuary. It was declared World Heritage on 30 November 2000 as part of the Tarraco ensemble.
