Marcomagus, Roman archaeological site in Nettersheim, Germany.

The archaeological site extends 600 meters along an ancient road from Urft valley to Görresburg, featuring residential structures and temple foundations.

Marcomagus served as a settlement point on the Roman road between Trier and Cologne until the early 5th century, when it ceased operations.

The temple area, known as Görresburg, contains altars and ceremonial spaces dedicated to the Matronae Aufaniae, dating from the second half of the first century.

A 4.5-kilometer circular path connects the Nature Center in Nettersheim to various stations within the Archaeological Landscape Park.

At Steinrütsch, archaeologists discovered evidence of long-term iron production through metal slag findings and remains of ancient metallurgical facilities.
