The reconstruction of the city quarter was based on archaeological findings using antique technology and manual labor to accurately recreate the 4th-century measurements. A formerly significant Roman settlement and capital of the province Pannonia Superior, this city began as a temporary winter camp in the early first century.

Carnuntum was a strategic, political, and economic point in the province and contained both a military zone and a civilian city. It was even larger than Vindobona, or modern-day Vienna.
