Roman fort Celemantia, Roman military fortress in Iža, Slovakia.

The stone foundations and remnants of walls at Celemantia reveal a rectangular structure measuring 172 by 176 meters along the Danube River.

Built during the second century, Celemantia served as a crucial defense point against Germanic tribes until its destruction around 400 CE.

The fortress contained barracks, storage areas, and administrative buildings that demonstrate the organizational structure of Roman military settlements in Central Europe.

The archaeological site includes informational panels in multiple languages and offers guided tours from April through October by appointment.

Archaeological excavations uncovered a water supply system with clay pipes extending from the fortress to natural springs in nearby hills.
