Important site in Roman history. If you're a buff of that era this is a fantastic feather in your cap.

Still in relatively early stages of archeological discovery of the Roman town, but interesting visit nonetheless. Kids will enjoy the mammoth fossils that were found by accident and are now displayed in a special dedicated area.
