Event:Adult Learners Week - Life in the Roman Legion

National Roman Legion Museum
Finished

Almost 2000 years ago the Fortress of Isca (Caerleon) played a big part in the north-western frontier of the Roman Empire.  

 

Why not pop in to meet one of our soldiers from the Second Augustan Legion? 

They will show you some of their armour, weapons and military equipment as well as telling you about life for a Roman soldier on the edge of the empire.  

This session will be bilingual.
