Castra of Kumpfmühl, Roman military fort in Regensburg, Germany.

The Castra of Kumpfmühl extends across 2.2 hectares and features foundations of ancient Roman military structures, including barracks, gates, and defensive towers.

Constructed around 80 CE as a wood-earth fort, the site underwent reconstruction in 179 CE with stone structures following its destruction during the Marcomanni wars.

The fort complex included a civilian settlement where craftsmen, merchants, and soldiers' families contributed to local trade and economic development.

Visitors can examine the archaeological remains through interpretive displays that explain the layout and function of different areas within the Roman military installation.

The site contains preserved heating systems and storage facilities that demonstrate advanced engineering methods used by Roman military architects in cold German territories.
