Castra Alisca Ad Latus, Roman military fort in Őcsény, Hungary.

The Castra Alisca Ad Latus contains stone walls and fortified structures arranged in a rectangular pattern along the Pannonian frontier defense system.

The Roman fort served as a strategic military installation during the occupation of Pannonia, monitoring movements across the Danube River from the first century.

Archaeological excavations at the site revealed sarcophagi decorated with Roman mythological figures, including representations of Cupid and Psyche.

The archaeological site maintains regular visiting hours from April through October, with guided tours available in Hungarian and English upon reservation.

The fort's defensive structures incorporate local limestone materials, demonstrating the Roman adaptation to regional resources for military construction techniques.
