Römerlager Lahnau-Dorlar
Römerlager Lahnau-Dorlar, Roman military camp archaeological site in Dorlar, Germany
The Römerlager Lahnau-Dorlar extends over 21 hectares on a ridge north of the Lahn river, featuring a trapezoidal layout of 550 by 410 meters.
Roman legionaries constructed this military fortification during the first decade of the first century AD as part of their campaign into Germania Magna.
The archaeological excavations in 1991 and 1992 revealed fragments of amphorae and military artifacts that demonstrate Roman military practices in Germanic territories.
The site includes information panels explaining the camp layout and visitors can walk around the perimeter to examine the remains of ancient fortification structures.
The eastern entrance complex stands 85 meters north of the southeastern corner, displaying an unusual offset position from the center of the fortification.
