ROMAN ROAD

To the east of the village of Šempeter, a 5-minute walk away, there is a preserved Roman roadway along which you will find renovated plans of cellars and smaller burials. Not far from the Roman necropolis, there are remains of the via romana which connected the towns of Ptuj (Poetovio), Celje (Celeia), Ljubljana (Emona) and Trieste (Tergesta). Some 300 m of the road have been uncovered and give an idea of the great technical superiority of the Roman people in late antiquity.
