GERMANY ~ Historical Museum - Regensburg - UNESCO ~

... Nice view of one of the remains at the Danube Limes... such heads with helmets (Mars or depictions of soldiers often interpreted as Mars) fit into the repertoire of provincial Roman funerary art, which emphasises the status and military connection of the deceased... linked to the early phase of Roman military presence in Regensburg-Kumpfmühl which was particularly well documented in the 2nd and 3rd centuries... Thanks Dustin!【ツ】

This museum features a "Roman Regensburg" department that displays various Roman artifacts, including statues of deities (like Mercury). Special exhibitions, such as one on the Marcomannic Wars, have featured replica Roman armor and helmets.

In 2021, the Bavarian section of the Danube Limes between Regensburg and Passau, together with the Danube Limes in Austria and Slovakia, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
