Opposite the forum are the remains of the Roman administrative center. These were the Curia as City Hall and the Basilica. In the Curia the City Council (Decurionnrat, 100 men) met together with the two Mayors (Duoviri).
The basilica served as Augusta Raurica's administrative and court building. It was a representative three-aisled hall building.

Unfortunately, the mosaics will have a new home this year, namely in the central warehouse
