Castra of Hesselbach

Hesselbach Fort was a Roman numerus fort along the older Odenwald Line of the Neckar-Odenwald Limes. This archaeological site is located in Hesselbach, a district of the town of Oberzent in the Odenwaldkreis, Hesse, Germany. It is the most thoroughly studied military installation of the Odenwald Limes and the southernmost Roman fort in Hesse. Hesselbach Fort serves as a reference point for nearly all other forts along the Odenwald Limes, with insights gained here applied in Roman provincial archaeology to interpret the entire Limes section between the rivers Main and Neckar.
