Roman Aqueduct & Baths
Roman Aqueduct IV and Roman Baths in the Roman town of Sexi, also called the Carrera, is just outside the historic center of town at Plaza Mayor. This was the last part of the aqueduct discovered in the late 90’s, during excavations in the Plaza Mayor, next to the Carrera de la Concepción. This was completely buried by the sediment of the Rio Verde. During the archaeological dig, they also discovered hot springs, which likely filled the Roman Baths.

Situated next to the Peñón, this statue honours the man who founded the Moorish dynasty in Al-Andalus
Photo Monument to Phoenicians
By Miguel Moreno Romera this monument honours the Phoenician fishermen who first put Almuñécar on the map as a trading town in the 800s BC. At that time the town was named Sexi. The people today still refer to Sexitanos
