Filming in Carnuntum

In the Roman town of Carnuntum, reconstructed Roman buildings offer a unique glimpse into the 4th century AD and showcase the way of life in Roman antiquity at its finest. In a world first, a town house, a city villa, Roman thermal baths and an oil merchant’s warehouse have been reconstructed on their original sites using ancient building techniques. All the buildings are fully furnished, the kitchens are fully functional, and even the thermal baths are heated by a replica of the ancient underfloor heating system.
This special historical atmosphere has already been used for numerous film shoots, primarily to provide the perfect setting for historical and scientific documentaries. But even outside the historical context, the Roman town of Carnuntum has already served as an unusual and stylish backdrop for a wide range of film and television productions.
