Bedburg-Hau
Panoramic view of the old military fort
A total of seven military camps and an auxiliary fort confirm that from the first half of the 1st century AD until the early 2nd century AD this was one of the most important military locations along the Lower Germanic Limes. Several sections of the camp have been built over, while the remainder lies beneath farmland. The Sommerlandstraße cycle path provides easy access by bike.

Note:
The archaeological remains that make up the Lower Germanic Limes (NGL) UNESCO World Heritage Site are all very well preserved. Most of these structures are buried underground and well protected. Some are visible above ground. So far, there is very little on-site information explaining the history and significance of these finds. We are currently working on a comprehensive package of information and presentation resources to promote public understanding of these sites.
