Castra Buridava, Roman military fort in Stolniceni, Romania.
The archaeological site covers 50 hectares and contains stone walls, military structures, and thermal baths with thirteen identified chambers.
The fort was established around 103 AD during Emperor Trajan's reign as part of the Limes Alutanus defense system along the Roman frontier.
Multiple military units including I Hispanorum, II Flavia Bessorum, and V Macedonica stationed at the fort shaped the development of local infrastructure.
The ruins are accessible through Stolniceni, near Râmnicu Vâlcea, with archaeological artifacts displayed at the Vâlcea County Museum.
Archaeological excavations in 2022 revealed detailed thermal bath structures with five distinctive apses, demonstrating advanced Roman engineering techniques.
