The House of Fortune, currently only visitable Roman domus presents museological developments that help you understand all the rooms where today have original mosaics and a large set of murals that give special luxury housing and wealth.

New museology more didactic and visual as well as a recreation in 3D, produced by the Integra Foundation and conducted by the company Digital Mind Cartagena, shows the reconstruction of the house, pointing out the key moments of the daily life of a patrician family.

It has also recreated a scene with furniture, true to the period, completing a comprehensive overview of an entire house and found in the triclinium or former banquet hall.

The section also includes new information panels informing visitors of the rooms that make up this Roman house, as well as the characteristics of the city from the Roman era.

If private citizens areas of the empire in the Barrio del Foro develop in the House of Fortune, much of its commercial, civil and religious activity was developed.

The Roman Forum Area opened to the public last weeks new Atrium building stays in one of the rooms has been found an important iconography suggestive pictorial composition which contained the god Apollo accompanied by the Muses, of which, until time, there is evidence of three: Terpsichore, Melpomene and Calliope

Another novelty is the possibility of a walk through the streets that define the block of the first century, which has restored the shape of two streets (cardo and decumanus) who walked by the citizens of the time, making it possible to travel by these streets and have a circular view of the Atrium Building, the peristyle and the baths getting the original topographic unit of the District Forum.

This recovery has been supported by an agreement between Repsol and the city of Cartagena Foundation.
