This impressive UNESCO SITE, Felix Romuliana, is located only 10 km from Zaječar, and it was built in the late 3rd and early 4th centuries, commissioned by the Roman Emperor Galerius Maximianus and named after his mother Romula. Immense polygonal towers, rising originally to a height of over nine meters, presented an intimidating visual aspect to any attackers in that time. The luxurious imperial palace Felix Romulana built inside the fortified complex consists of some fifteen rooms, most of which were paved with amazing geometric-patterned mosaics now presented in National Museum, Zaječar. This 360-degree video with immersive storytelling will guide you through this remarkable archaeological site in Eastern Serbia, also known as Gamzigrad-Romuliana or Palace of Galerius.
