About

The Proserpina Roman Dam in Mérida is a remarkable testament to ancient engineering, standing strong after nearly 2000 years. Originally constructed to supply fresh water to the city, this historical attraction offers an impressive blend of functionality and beauty. Visitors can explore detailed information panels on-site to learn about the dam's construction and significance. The dam is unexpectedly surrounded by a lush oasis, contrasting with the otherwise arid Extramaduran countryside. With a high average rating of 4.6, this site is not only fascinating for history enthusiasts but also suitable for a family visit.

Excelente embalse para darse una vuelta y comer en uno de sus chiringuitos. Quizás el agua no está muy limpia como para bañarse...
