Carnuntum Wheelchair Accessible Tours

The Carnuntum Archaeological Park, in Lower Austria, offers its visitors the experience of living the history of ancient Rome to all intents and purposes.

Ancient Carnuntum was a Roman settlement founded in the I century at the crossroads of the commercial routes on the Danube.

Initially born as a legionary castrum, it became an increasingly important center over time, until it reached the status of municipium under the empire of Hadrian and that of a colony with the advent of Caracalla.

Its importance was above all due to the flourishing amber trade.

The philosopher emperor Marcus Aurelius stayed inside the city from 171 to 173 and Septimius Severus when he was governor of Pannonia.

Important historical events took place in Carnuntum, such as the Conference of Emperors in 308, which decided the future of the Roman Empire.

The four hundred years of Roman presence in Carnuntum reflect a historical period that profoundly influenced and shaped the development of Europe and European culture.

Touring Carnuntum

In the area where the Carnuntum wheelchair accessible tours is located, in addition to the remains of the ancient Roman city, there is also a small museum which preserves numerous finds from the entire surrounding archaeological area.

The archaeological park was established in 1970, when it was decided to evoke the lifestyle of the Roman era, through the use of architectural and scenographic reconstructions and the creation of costume events, such as equestrian or gladiatorial games.

The objective was to promote and spread knowledge of the history of the imperial Roman period through more effective information systems aimed at young people.

Today, in the Carnuntum Archaeological Park, continuous improvement interventions are carried out in order to make the reconstructions increasingly faithful to those of ancient Rome, such as the house of the merchant Livy or the urban villa inaugurated in 2008.

The architectural style of the reconstructions is inspired BC to that of the 4th century AD.
