Roman Villa Rustica Nürtingen-Oberensingen

Remains of an old Roman estate on the outskirts of Nürtingen with well-preserved remains of walls and old millstones.

In the spring of 1988, during development work in the "In den Seelen" development area in Nürtingen-Oberensingen, parts of a Roman estate were discovered. It was established around 100 AD. The information panels take you on an exciting journey back in time to an impressive property whose courtyard wall once enclosed an area of 280 x 180 meters. This is one of the largest Roman estates in Baden-Württemberg. Immediately after 223 AD, the complex was destroyed by fire. It is believed that the fire was caused by an Alemanni invasion.
