Kleinkastell Haselburg, Roman military outpost in Reinhardsachsen, Germany

The stone fort measures 48 meters by 37 meters and contains two entrance gates, with partial remains of the eastern gate still visible today.

Built around 159/160 CE, the structure began as an earth-timber fortification before being converted into a stone fortress along the Upper German-Raetian Limes.

Archaeological excavations at the site have uncovered ceramics, coins, and an altar stone that reveals information about Roman military religious practices.

The archaeological site sits at 368 meters elevation between the villages of Reinhardsachsen and Gerolzahn, requiring permission for any research activities.

This castellum provided soldiers with clear views of neighboring border installations, enabling effective surveillance of potential threats from Germanic territories.
