Hermeskeil Roman Camp, Roman military site in Hermeskeil, Germany.
The military fortification extends across 260,000 square meters, featuring earth walls and ditches that demonstrate Roman engineering techniques.
The camp was established during Julius Caesar's Gallic War in the 50s BCE, marking the earliest Roman military installation discovered in Germany.
Archaeological findings include shoe nails and earthenware vessels that demonstrate the daily routines of Roman soldiers stationed at this military post.
The archaeological site near Trier maintains regular visiting hours and provides informational panels explaining the military structures and discoveries.
The camp's location near the Celtic settlement Hunnenring indicates the strategic positioning for monitoring the local Treveri tribe.
