LIMESEUM and Ruffenhofen Roman Park

The LIMESEUM provides information on the Limes World Heritage Site in the district of Ansbach with the forts Dambach, Unterschwaningen and Ruffenhofen. Life in Roman times is vividly portrayed thanks to the soldier December. In audio stations and in a film, visitors get vivid insights into his everyday life. Special exhibitions and action days complement the offer. Guided tours are offered for groups.

The entire museum can be used without a lift for the disabled. Many showcases are wheelchair accessible. For the visually impaired/blind there is a touch station, a smell station, six listening stations and an audio track for the two small films on the Limes and the museum film.

The Römerpark Ruffenhofen with an area of more than 40 ha is right next to the LIMESEUM. Visitors can find out more about the former Roman fort and the camp village on the circular routes. A playground, various play structures and child-friendly texts on the premises are ideal for a trip with the whole family.

Wittelshofen at the Hesselberg

Wittelshofen is located on the southwest edge of the Hesselberg. The stone fort of Ruffenhofen was very close by, with one of the strongest fighting forces in the province of Raetia. From there a road led via Wittelshofen to Dambach Castle.
