Ingelheim in Roman times

Welcome to Ingelheim. Get to know the city and its Roman past.

The app "Ingelheim in Roman times" links objects from the "Museum bei der Kaiserpfalz" with their discovery sites. Through 360° panoramas in augmented reality, videos and images, the Roman environment of the 1st century AD in Ingelheim is brought to life.

The highlight is the presentation of a monumental grave monument with three grave figures that were found in the north of Ingelheim at the end of the 19th century. Using 3D scans, these figures were reconstructed three-dimensionally and in color and embedded in a 360° panorama. In this way, the former monument, of which nothing has been preserved, can be viewed in its original surroundings. The Roman settlement, agricultural estates as well as fields and farmlands complete a lifelike picture of antiquity.

At a selected station, the donor of the funerary monument tells about her life and provides an exciting insight into Roman society.

Another 360° panorama from a bird's-eye view provides a broad overview of today's Ingelheim. This allows users who are unfamiliar with the area to get better orientation.

The suggested tour ends with a visit to the "Museum bei der Kaiserpfalz" in Ingelheim, where the original life-size figures of the monument can be seen.
