Emerita Augusta - Aqueduct of Los Milagros

Aqueduct of Los Milagros

Part of the transfer that brought water to Merida from the Proserpina Dam located 5 km from the city. Dates from the early 1st B.C. century.

The arcade is now fairly well preserved, especially the section that spans the valley of the river Albarregas.

It is known by this name, because it seems a miracle that it was still standing.
