    Here a Roman left his sword and shield on Germanic soil. Very nice art installation.

      A Risen shield and sword (art object) placed on the Limes on the Germanic side, symbolizes the Roman conquest of the Wetterau.

        The Limes runs directly along the forest path here. Some "testimonies" of the past have been reconstructed here, great.
