Here is the link to Wikipedia entry, where you can find more info about this fort.

Are there any remains of Roman civilisation where you live? What historical gems can be found in your home city? Share in the comments!

Mostly loner, usually cynical, occasionally misanthropic. European. Bratislava-born, Manchester-based. Cat owner. I like taking pictures a bit.
