    The exact function of the impressive structure is unknown today. Here you can start a discovery tour through the Roman city of Carnuntum: around 50,000 residents lived here in the military legionary camp and the attached civilian city. To compare: Hainburg has almost 6,000 inhabitants today, Bruck an der Leitha 7,700! At that time there were five-story houses in Rome; after the fall of the Roman Empire, it took Europe over 1000 years to be able to rebuild such buildings.

    I recommend a long (bicycle) hike through the remains (and reconstructions in the local park) to immerse yourself in this great time. Just behind the main road is one of the two amphitheaters, a little further in town is the park with a museum and some reconstructed houses, further along the Danube there are the palace ruins and in front of Bad Deutsch-Altenburg the second amphitheater. Have fun!

      Really fascinating to stand in such a place and imagine what it must have looked like in its original state.
