Nederland, Arnhem, 23-10-2016Castra Herculis was een fort in Romeins Nederland. Het castellum Meinerswijk bij Arnhem werd vermoedelijk tussen het jaar 10 en 20 gebouwd door de Romeinse generaal Germanicus aan de zuidzijde van de Rijn. Dit houten fort beschermde de Romeinse scheepvaart over de Rijn en de Drususgracht, die de Rijn met de IJssel verbond.Foto: Stichting Tijdlijn/Historische Projecten
