Burgus Ahegg, Roman military outpost in Buchenberg, Germany.
The fortification of Burgus Ahegg consists of large rolled stones forming an almost square enclosure with a gate on the northern side.
The site was established on a moraine-formed ridge away from the Roman Limes road, allowing the garrison to monitor surrounding border territories.
Archaeological excavations have revealed a fireplace and drainage system that provide evidence of Roman military life and construction methods from the period.
The site is protected under Bavarian Monument Protection Law, which regulates research activities and artifact collection in the designated area.
Burgus Ahegg remains the only late Roman watchtower and residential complex of its type in southern Germany with visible above-ground structures.
Part of: Donau-Iller-Rhein-Limes
