The Roman Gallery
Discover what life at the Fort was like for the soldiers who lived there and explore the methods that archaeologists have used to uncover Segedunum's secrets.
The centre of the Roman gallery is remodelled on the courtyard of the original Fort's headquarters building. It contains a superbly detailed model of Segedunum and an interactive virtual tour of the Fort which allows individual buildings to be explored in more detail. The gallery also has a reconstruction of a cavalry barrack, and displays focusing on the Commanding Officer's house, the granary and the hospital.
