Vicus Wareswald, Archaeological site in St. Wendel, Germany.

The remains of Vicus Wareswald extend across 20 hectares along slopes, featuring building foundations and stone structures from Roman times.

Established in the first century AD at the intersection of Roman roads connecting Strasbourg to Trier and Metz to Mainz.

The excavated temple dedicated to Mars and decorated sandstone blocks demonstrate religious practices and architectural skills of Roman settlers.

Visitors can examine three distinct building complexes in the village center, where 2,500 square meters have been systematically excavated.

Geomagnetic studies reveal the settlement stretched 1,000 meters along road slopes, reaching peak development during second-century prosperity.
