ROMAN CITY QUARTER
In the reconstructed Roman city quarter you are literally a guest in the Romans‘ living rooms. All buildings have been re-erected in their original locations, giving a glimpse into Roman society. Together with decorative details and furniture a unique time frame to this epoch has thus been opened.

Built in 1904 in the style of a Roman country villa, the building is Carnuntum's treasure house. In the brand-new exhibition "Metropolis at the Danube Limes", visitors experience the history from winter camp to big city up close. Original finds provide great insights into the life of the metropolis. The ideal introduction to a trip to Carnuntum!
