I have seen a great deal of fantastic Roman fortresses all over Europe and I was not impressed with this small but strategically located fort overlooking the Danube. However, I was very impressed with the energetic and welcoming curator. The fort was closed when our group arrived and after several phone calls it turned out the curator was called to the Bulgaria-Romania border to identify some looted objects from antiquity that someone tried to smuggle out of Bulgaria. That story was intriguing. But the fort was finally opened for us and we were shown the site. We also got to examined a WWII bunker with the inscribed name of a German doctor who had carved his name and date into a brick. Apparently the doctor had visited the site a few years ago and made the curator aware of the special brick. All the bricks had been whitewashed at one time. While the paint was removed no other inscribed bricks were found. If you are in Ruse this is worth a visit.
