Model of a stone watchtower based on the reliefs of Trajan's Column in Rome.


A lot of observation posts were built along the 548 km long "Upper Germanic-Rhaetian Limes". The older wooden towers were replaced by stone watchtowers in the middle of the 2nd century AD. The ruins of their foundations are often still preserved and can be visited. Today, these excavations and the reliefs on Trajan's Column in Rome allow an approximately original reconstruction of the stone forts.
