    It is a cohort fort with a crew of around 460 men. The troops and one of the commanders are known. The dimensions are known, but very little is known about the internal structures and other things. There are hardly any finds.
    The right gate (Porta principales dextra) in the south was rebuilt in the foundation. The thickness of the walls is still impressive today.
    The layout of the large and small forts (occupied by one number = about 160 men) was always the same. Described e.g. here:


    militaer-wissen.de/roemisches-militaerlager-kastell
    or here:
    de.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%B6misches_Milit%C3%A4rlager


    In an emergency, and especially at night, it is vital to find the alarm station quickly, safely and without confusion.
