Hiking
The large number of visitors in the camp village of Zugmantel made the maintenance of two small amphitheaters profitable. A plant was located here on the northern edge of the settlement not far from Hühnerstrasse. You can see a circular earth wall (48m) which serves as a substructure for the wooden frame with the rows of seats and an arena (24m) that was sunk into the ground. The finds from Zugmantel can be linked to gladiators and animal fights.
