Römerlager Holsterhausen
Römerlager Holsterhausen, Roman archaeological site in Dorsten, Germany
The Römerlager Holsterhausen contains ten overlapping Roman marching camps spread across 150,000 square meters near the Lippe River in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Excavations between 1999 and 2002 revealed camps dating from 11 BC to 9 AD that accommodated up to 10,000 Roman soldiers including auxiliary troops.
The site features 270 preserved ovens, weapons, ceramics, thousands of shoe nails, and 225 Roman coins that demonstrate daily military life.
The archaeological site extends from Martin-Luther-Straße to Mühlenstraße and includes informational displays explaining the significance of discovered artifacts.
A 40-meter wide Roman road discovered at the site indicates substantial infrastructure development for military logistics between Vetera and other regional camps.
