BGL has performed the audiovisual installation for the Archeological Ensemble of the Roman ruins in memory of   Baelo Claudia.

This coastal town already existed at the time of the Phoenicians, the Romans took advantage of the settlement to install factories of seafood and establish a small colony that was growing progressively. We are talking about the 2nd century B.C.

The life in this city has developed until an imprecise moment of the centuries VI-VII A.D.It was an ideal base port to connect with the neighboring Tingis, in the current Tanger and also had an important production of salted fish, fishing and the famous Garum sauce, very appreciated in Rome. 

Little by little, the constant progress of the Mauritanian pirates, production crisis and some natural catastrophes ended with this city whose greatness we can only glimpse today.
