Workers are currently focused on reconstructing the protective roofs for the open-air archaeological remains. According to the National Archaeological Museum of Tarragona (MNAT), degraded structures are being replaced with modern, weather-resistant materials while respecting Emilio Pérez Piñero's original 1971 design.
This project involves a total investment of 9 million euros, funded by the European Next Generation program. Beyond the roofs, the Motores building is being rehabilitated after the Tarragona City Council transferred the site to the State to expand the museum complex.
Designed by the Urbana Strata team, including architects Pau Jansà and Genís Boix, the plan also transforms the surrounding gardens into a free public park. While construction will end soon, the official reopening date remains pending the completion of a new museography project for the central museum, which has been closed since 1992.
