    The Ostkastel, with its excavations on display. A site worth seeing.

      The "Archaeological Park Ostkastell" is located in Welzheim in the Rems-Murr-Kreis, Baden-Württemberg.

      - a fort on the Upper German Limes
      - the "Ostkastell" was a "numerus fort"
      - "Open air museum"
      - reconstructions and stone sculptures, e.g. the west gate was reconstructed in its original size
      - From May to October the gate towers are also open every Sunday and public holiday
