Introducing Carnuntum
The Roman town of Carnuntum was the most important political and military centre in the empire’s northeast; with a population of 50, 000 people at its peak, it made Vienna look like a village in comparison. The town developed around AD 40 and was abandoned some 400 years later. Today it exists as a relic of Roman civilisation in Upper Pannonia, and is integrated into two modern-day settlements set 4km apart: Petronell-Carnuntum and the larger spa town of Bad Deutsch-Altenburg.
