What To Expect

Santa Maria de Morvedre

Set off at the 14th-century Santa Maria Church in the heart of Sagunto. The looming church, a National Monument itself, heralds an important archaeological site nestling on its side: the ruins of Sagunto Diana Temple. The remaining ashlar wall of the Roman religious hub has a tremendous testimonial value as the only surviving witness of the historic Siege Of Saguntum in 219 BC, triggered one of the most important wars of the ancient world, the Second Punic War.
