About Tarragona
Tarragona is located 62 kilometres from Sitges and has a fascinating mix of Mediterranean beach life, Roman history and medieval alleyways.
As Spain's second most important Roman site Tarragona has a wealth of ruins including a seaside amphitheatre. The Roman archaeological complex of Tarraco includes the main monuments that survived from the ancient Roman era. In November 2000 the city was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
Tarragona also still has significant monuments from its medieval past with the Cathedral being the most prominent. The town’s medieval heart is a maze of narrow cobbled streets encircled by steep walls and crowned with a splendid cathedral.
