Guided Story

Imagine standing where Roman soldiers once walked, and merchants exchanged goods nearly two thousand years ago. Take a look at the impressive stones of the Roman Wall, each one a piece of ancient history. Behind you, towards the Fronhof, you can almost feel the whispers of the past. Did you know this wall was part of a massive defensive structure? It wasn't just for protection; it was a stage for countless stories. As you turn around, you'll see the Peutinger House to the south, named after a famous Augsburg humanist who was also fascinated by Roman history. This place speaks not just of Rome's might, but of the people who lived, loved, and worked here.
