Roman Villa Brederis

On a debris cone of the Frutz in the middle of the Bresner Weitried, Roman settlers built an agricultural estate in the 1st century AD, which consisted of several buildings. After the remains of a house equipped with an apse and underfloor heating were discovered in 1954, archaeologists from the Federal Monuments Office uncovered two more buildings between 2002 and 2007: the former main house of the complex and the Roman bathhouse. Not only the museum itself offers visitors a direct insight into the time of the Romans in Vorarlberg. Members of the "Legio XXI Rapax" (Roman occupation troops in Raetia) as well as Germanic people from the far north regularly bring Roman antiquity to life by illustrating the daily life of Roman soldiers and the civilian population in an entertaining way.
