Castra Regina, Roman military fortress in Regensburg, Germany
The stone walls and foundations of Castra Regina extend across central Regensburg, marking the original boundaries of the Roman military installation.
Emperor Marcus Aurelius established Castra Regina in 179 AD as a strategic fortress to protect the northern frontier of the Roman Empire.
The excavated sections beneath Neupfarrplatz Square contain multiple archaeological layers, from Roman military structures to medieval Jewish settlement remains.
The Document Neupfarrplatz museum displays artifacts from the site, including a collection of 684 Roman gold coins found during excavations.
The fortress walls measured 540 meters by 450 meters and contained specialized sections for military operations, administrative functions, and soldier accommodations.
