Arae Flaviae, Roman archaeological site in Rottweil, Germany.
The excavated site reveals a Roman urban settlement with temples, public buildings, and residential areas across 18 hectares of land.
Emperor Vespasian established this municipium in 73 AD as a strategic settlement for monitoring important road intersections in Germania Superior.
The site name Arae Flaviae, meaning Altars of the Flavians, indicates a regional center for imperial worship of the Flavian dynasty.
The Dominikanermuseum in Rottweil displays two Roman mosaics from the site, depicting Sol and Orpheus, which demonstrate Roman craftsmanship.
Archaeologists identified three Gallo-Roman ambulatory temples and a large cremation cemetery at the southern edge of the ancient city.
