Römisches Militärlager Ingolstadt-Zuchering

The Roman military camp of Ingolstadt-Zuchering extends across agricultural land, featuring rectangular structures with rounded corners and defensive trenches spanning one hectare.

Between 1978 and 1982, aerial archaeologist Otto Braasch discovered three Roman military camps and a segment of the southern Danube road in Zuchering-Seehof.

The excavation findings include first-century cooking vessels and tools that document the daily routines of Roman soldiers stationed at the fortification.

The archaeological site lies southeast of Seehof, with all discovered artifacts now stored and displayed at the Ingolstadt City Museum.

The camp utilized natural defenses, with the Sandrach River flowing through an ancient Danube riverbed approximately 850 meters northwest of the fortification.
