Located between the Delta and the Ports of Beseit,<\/em> Tortosa embraces the Ebre River and gives off the grandeur of a legendary capital<\/span><\/p>\n

In the historic core of the ancient Dertusa you can discover the traces of Romans, Paleo-Christians, Templars and of the illustrious men of the Renaissance. The great novelty of the season is the archaeological discovery of Cota Zero, located in the lower part of the Cathedral.

What to visit<\/h3>\n

Tortosa is a monumental and legendary city. Cosmopolitan and at the same time with a very marked identity of its own. To discover its history and culture, it is recommended to purchase the Tortosa Card<\/strong>, which gives access to the main monuments and museums of the city, and allows you to obtain discounts in various shops.<\/p>\n

The most emblematic experience of Tortosa are the river routes<\/strong> with Lo Sirgador<\/strong>. Aboard a historic wooden boat, the lute, the route runs through the monumental Tortosa and through natural spaces such as the riverside forest of Xiquina Island. It comes out every day at noon, at the time of the vermouth, and in the afternoon during sunset.<\/p>\n

The other cultural must-see in Tortosa is the Cathedral of Santa Maria<\/strong>. One of the highest expressions of Gothic and Baroque in Catalonia. It has a permanent exhibition with pieces of Visigothic, Arab and Baroque origin. In the Cathedral itself we can immerse ourselves in history thanks to the new Cota Zero<\/em>\u00a0Archaeological Space<\/strong>, where you can see the old Roman wall and the basilica of the first Christians.<\/p>\n

A highly recommended free walk is the one that leads to the Castell de la Suda<\/strong>, an old Andalusian fortress restored by the Templars that crowns the city and offers bird’s-eye views of the Cathedral and the Ebro River.<\/p>\n

In addition, with the Tortosa Card you can also visit the Royal Colleges of the Renaissance<\/strong>: the College of Sant Jaume and Sant Maties, the College of Sant Jordi and Sant Dom\u00e8nec and the Church of Sant Dom\u00e8nec, currently home to the permanent exhibition on the City and the Renaissance Festival, which is celebrated at the end of July.<\/p>\n
