The Fortuna House will take you to the domestic environment of the Roman Cartagena during the first century. The different rooms that formed the house, the dining room where the family celebrated the banquets, the salon in which the lord of the house received his visitors or to the bedrooms and private part of the house. Their objects of personal adornment, chandeliers, dishes, among others, will help you understand the fashions and customs of the time. At the same time, you will be able to admire the beauty of its murals and mosaics with a variety of reasons such as the Swan - image of the house -, swastikas, flowers or pomegranates. All laden with a great mythological symbolism.

Although built over by other buildings, this archeological site does give a good understanding of how this modest house was accessed from the street and designed and lived in. The displays are informative and give more detail than the larger scale remains in the Roman Forum site. Only requires a short visit - under an hour - and well worth the €2.50 entrance charge.
