風景の中に芸術作品が佇む

In front of the Roman Museum stands this impressive statue of a Roman legionary, depicting Publius Junius Secundus. The soldier was stationed in Osterburken in the 3rd century AD as a beneficiary of the governor. Beneficiaries were soldiers assigned to special duties such as customs and police duties.

A visit here not only guarantees knowledge, but also the feeling that history can truly come alive.

The Osterburken Roman Fort is an important Roman military camp and part of the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Germanic-Raetian Limes. It was built around 160 AD as a cohort fort and later expanded with an annex fort. The fort served to secure and monitor the Roman border and housed units such as the Cohors III Aquitanorum equitata.

The Karle Horse Farm in Osterburken is a traditional family business that has been working with horses for generations. Originally, the horses were used in the fields, but today the focus is on boarding, breeding, and competitive horse riding. The farm offers species-appropriate housing, including active stables and group exercise areas, as well as balanced feeding and personalized care. Of particular note is the option of housing retired horses in an active stable or a box, where they receive plenty of exercise and care.

Perfect for taking a break and enjoying the view of the picturesque landscape.

The horse paddock is a place where the animals can enjoy plenty of space and balanced care.

Located south of the city, it offers visitors a glimpse into the monumentality of the Roman border fortifications. The tower is accessible and serves as a viewing point with a sweeping view of the building site. Numerous information panels provide background information on the Limes and the construction phases of the watchtowers.
