    Unfortunately, the fort can only be viewed from a platform. The area is completely fenced, which is a bit of a shame but probably necessary. On the plateau there are seating, information boards and models of 3 possible castell variants.

      The unusual Roman complex near Burgsalach was previously thought to be a small fort, the likes of which are otherwise only found in North Africa. However, according to recent findings, it is likely a mansio, a Roman inn.
