Roman Museum
Finds from numerous excavations in the Weissenburg area illustrate the long history. The highlight of the exhibition is the Roman treasure, which was buried between 233 and 259/60 because of impending danger and only rediscovered in 1979 in an asparagus bed. The most valuable of the statuettes is the Hercules statuette. The Roman treasure contains a total of around 150 individual pieces, 17 of which are bronze statuettes, making the Roman treasure the largest treasure find in Germany.
