West gateway and parts of the wood and earth wall
From archaeological evidence to 1:1 reconstruction
The planning for the first building phase began in 2012: part of of the wood and earth wall with a v-shaped ditch outside the wall and the west gate of the Roman main camp.
In the process archaeologists, architects and building historians studied the evidence of the excavation, discussed it and then reconstructed the original 1:1. Every post in the west gate is exactly in the position in which the original was detected in the excavation. Sections of the adjoining wood and earth wall with a v-shaped ditch outside the wall were likewise reconstructed exactly in the places in which Roman soldiers positioned them in the time of Augustus.
More camp buildings are being planned for a second phase. As an archaeological building site, they will be reconstructed, employing Roman techniques and using the materials and tools of Roman times.
