Roman fort Oberranna
4090 Engelhartszell
Roman Castle Oberranna - UNESCO World Heritage Site Danube-Limes
The late antique fortress of Oberranna, probably called STANACUM by the Romans, is located in the municipal area of the Danube market town of Engelhartszell.This important border post on the Danube Limes is around 1700 years old and the best-preserved ancient building in Upper Austria. As the northern border of the Roman Empire, the Danube Limes ran along the Danube from Regensburg to the Black Sea and was part of the approximately 6000 km long Limes around the Mediterranean from Scotland to Morocco. Since July 2021, the Danube Limes with all its excavation sites has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The history of the Imperium Romanum at the UNESCO World Heritage Site Danube Limes is exciting. And it becomes even more exciting when it is brought to life with augmented reality. Between Passau and Schlögen, new life is now being breathed into it with modern technology. Follow Severinus of Noricum to immerse yourself in the eventful history of the Danube Limes World Heritage Site and see what is still there today. Uncomplicated, simple and playfully explained - making history fun!
