Guided Story

Can you hear the rustling leaves in the breeze? Imagine, that's the same sound that accompanied the Romans over 2000 years ago. Look around; this flood-safe terrace was their sanctuary against the Iller's floods. Picture Roman citizens in their togas, strolling these streets, engaging in lively conversations, and enjoying the bustling life of their ancient town. Right in front of you is a reconstruction of a Gallo-Roman temple. Did you know that the Romans worshipped different gods here to ensure the city's protection? Take a closer look at the structure, and you might feel the echoes of time still resonating here. If you glance to the west, you can spot the spires of St. Mang, adding a unique historical touch to the landscape.
