Dating back more than 2,500 years, this fortified Celtic settlement was a major trading centre connected with the wider Mediterranean world. Archaeologists have uncovered evidence of impressive fortifications, houses and burial sites showing that the settlement was far more advanced than once believed. The site provides a glimpse into Celtic society before Roman expansion. Visitors can explore reconstructed buildings, exhibitions and walking trails across the surrounding landscape. The hilltop location also provides excellent views over the Danube Valley.
