This weekend we are celebrating with international Roman groups, riders with their horses, colleagues from Limes research and all visitors, because together with the Upper Germanic-Raetian Limes, the Saalburg has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2005.
The Upper Germanic-Raetian Limes (ORL) is part of a larger whole, as the borders of the Roman Empire from the Antonine Wall in Scotland to the Iža bridgehead fort in Slovakia and also the Dacian Limes in Romania have now been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
