The stone fort is located around two kilometers from the Limes and was probably built in the middle of the 2nd century. There was also a fort bath near the fort, and you can still see the floor plans today. A few information boards tell you more about the former importance of the place.

A stone pillar (NE corner) and three trees mark the four corners of the Roman fort, field paths mark the surrounding wall. The fort itself or ruins are not visible, as the area is still used for agriculture.
The inscription on the stone pillar says - as far as I could decipher it - this:
Here lay the
Roman fort
Iciniacum
built at the beginning of the 2nd century AD
destroyed by the Alemanni
in the middle of the 3rd century
