Grup Transversal will carry out the project for this venue located in Tarragona, which is the oldest archaeological museum in Catalonia. The project to refurbish the Archaeological Museum began in 2018 and has involved various actions by the Department of Culture of the Catalan government and the Ministry of Culture. After the appropriate refurbishment of the building and the drafting of the new museum project, the design of which has been carried out by Ámbito Cero, the organisation responsible for producing the executive project and transferring the collection has now been chosen, this assignment being awarded to Grup Transversal. The starting amount of the tender is close to three million euros.
The Archaeological Museum of Tarraco, the Roman name for Tarragona, will be based on a new permanent exhibition that will become a leading reference for the Roman period in Catalonia. It will occupy a total of 2,500 square metres with nearly a thousand items, some of which on display for the very first time.
