The massive Roman Theatre was built in the time of Caesar Augustus. It is without a doubt one of the finest remains of the Roman Empire and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is the best preserved Roman Theatre in the whole of Europe. With its stage wall still intact, the acoustics even today are extraordinary.
