Rigomagus, Roman archaeological site in Remagen, Germany.
The Rigomagus fort complex spreads across the highest section of present-day Remagen, positioned directly on the Rhine River near an ancient Roman road.
The Roman military installation was constructed between 6 BCE and 6 CE during General Tiberius's campaigns, initially using wooden structures for approximately 500 soldiers.
The First Cohort Flavian Spanish cavalry maintained this strategic position from 70 to 275 CE, protecting the valley where the Ahr River meets the Rhine.
The Roman Museum of Remagen, constructed above the visible foundations of the Principia, displays numerous artifacts and exhibits from the ancient military settlement.
The site contains a remarkable tombstone of Meteriola, an early Christian figure, which confirms continuous settlement through Late Antiquity.
