Royal Institute and Observatory of the Navy
The Royal Institute and Observatory of the Navy (briefly known as ROA) is a scientific research and cultural dissemination center belonging to the Spanish Navy and located in the town of San Fernando (Cádiz). It fulfills the specific functions of astronomical and geophysical observatory, as well as being a training center for scientific personnel of the Spanish Navy and having a library that houses 30,000 volumes. Considered the oldest modern scientific center in Spain and one of the most important in the world, the Royal Institute and Observatory of the Navy was one of the most important examples of neoclassical architecture in the surroundings of Cádiz. The ROA building was built at the end of the 18th century on the Cerro de Torre Alta, architecturally characterized by its great simplicity and purity of lines. The current ROA headquarters replaced the previous one, located in Cádiz and of low altitude for astronomical observation.
