The former so-called Roman fort was located around this rest area. It served as a fortified Lippehafen for the large legionary camp in Oberaden. Archaeological excavations brought walls, ditches, traces of buildings and all kinds of everyday objects to light. The replica of a ship on the Lippe at the rest area is reminiscent of this exciting period in Lünen's history.
