Roman Museum Kastell Boiotro
RömerMuseum Kastell Boiotro
A late Roman fort site and museum on the south bank of the Inn, telling the story of Passau as a Roman frontier town.
Boiotro was a small fort on the Danube frontier of the Roman Empire in the 4th century, and the site lies in the Innstadt district on the south bank of the Inn. The museum preserves the fort walls, tower foundations, and a Roman well, and displays Roman-era artifacts unearthed in Passau and the surrounding area. It also introduces the history of St. Severinus preaching here. The site is fairly small, making it suitable for visitors interested in the Roman frontier, namely the Danube Limes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Admission is about €4. Closed in winter. A 10-minute walk from the Old Town over the Inn bridge.
Opening hours
