Castellum Hoge Woerd, Roman fort reconstruction in De Meern, Netherlands.

The Castellum Hoge Woerd spans across multiple levels, featuring six-meter-high walls that replicate the architecture of ancient Roman military fortifications.

Archaeological excavations in 1997 during construction works revealed substantial Roman border infrastructure, including a preserved ship from 150 AD.

The integrated theater seats 229 people and presents performances three times weekly, including stand-up comedy, cabaret, musical theater, and dance shows.

The museum section operates Tuesday through Sunday until 5 PM, offering free admission and displaying archaeological findings from the Roman period.

The facility houses a preserved Roman ship, De Meern I, which underwent twelve years of conservation before being displayed in the museum.
