Castrum Iciniacum

The rectangular stone structure contains four entrance gates at cardinal points and features rounded corners designed according to Roman military architecture standards.

Built during the Roman Empire's expansion, this fortification formed an essential part of the Raetian Limes defensive system along the Empire's northern frontier.

The site demonstrates Roman military engineering skills, where legionaries constructed defensive structures using specific measurements and architectural principles passed through generations.

Located at 499 meters elevation, the archaeological site remains open for visits throughout the year without entrance fees or time restrictions.

The fort's strategic position allowed Roman soldiers to monitor the surrounding terrain while maintaining communication with other fortifications along the Raetian border.
