Frontiers Of The Roman Empire

The Frontiers of the Roman Empire, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Europe, recognized in phases from 1987 to 2021, spans sites in Germany, the UK, Austria, and Slovakia, tracing the Roman Empire’s northern boundaries from the 1st to 5th centuries CE. Featuring Hadrian’s Wall, the Antonine Wall, and the Upper German-Raetian Limes, these fortifications, forts, and settlements reflect Rome’s military engineering and cultural reach. This transnational site showcases Europe’s ancient heritage, preserving a vast legacy of imperial defense and interaction.
