Haus Bürgel, Roman fort turned medieval estate in Monheim am Rhein, Germany.
The quadrangular complex contains remnants of a late Roman military fort with walls measuring 64 meters on each side and includes twelve towers.
Archaeological evidence indicates the fort served as a border security post until 406 CE, demonstrated by the discovery of 139 bronze coins and one gold coin.
The Roman Museum, established in 2003, exhibits local archaeological findings and features eight exhibition rooms connected by a path marking former fortification locations.
The Roman Museum opens weekends and holidays from 10 AM to 6 PM, while the Biological Station operates Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 1 PM.
Due to Rhine floods in 1373-1374, the originally left-bank fortress shifted to the right bank of the river, altering its strategic military position.
