Castra Gerulata, Ancient Roman military camp in Rusovce, Slovakia

The remains of Gerulata contain foundation walls, stone pillars, a ceremonial altar, and a burial ground spanning across the excavation site.

The military camp operated from the 1st to 4th century AD, hosting several Roman units including legio XV and cohors V Callaecorum Lucensium.

The museum exhibits display numerous artifacts of Roman daily life, including jewelry, weapons, ceramics, toiletries, clothing fragments, and ancient coins.

The museum, located at Gerulatská 1851 in Bratislava, opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM between April and October.

Archaeologist Ján Dekan discovered evidence of two distinct forts in 1965, with the first one destroyed by Marcommanic tribes after a century.
