Gives a nice insight into the size, shape and design of the Roman fort on the Limes
July 18, 2020
The fort below the large Feldberg is at an altitude of 700 meters, making it the highest fort on the entire Limes in Germany and one of the best-preserved buildings on the Limes. The former Limes can still be seen as a flat dam about 100 meters from the ruins.

Foundation walls of the Roman small fort, plus a Roman bath a little below. Some information boards explain both the remains and the historical surroundings of the fort. There are also a few sculptures in the castle itself. Above the castle (on a slope) you can start the ascent to the Great Feldberg.
