Company Events and Incentives

Carnuntum, the reborn city of Emperors, provides as no other location an unequalled elegant setting for pleasurable events and unusual celebrations.

Our suggested programme for your adventure in Carnuntum

Explore this world that is both far away and yet near, and experience the everyday life of Roman citizens at first hand.

Try your hand at simple crafts and attempt to attain modest wealth by hard work and skill. As a medicus you can make healing ointments, or else you can relax and play, for not only the “ludi romani” offer entertainment, but also sporting contests.

Full-day or half-day programme :

Museum Carnuntinum - Bad Deutsch-Altenburg

• Tour of the Exhibition at the Museum Carnuntinum
Lunch in the Forum Culinarium – Open Air Museum Petronell-Carnuntum

Open Air Museum Petronell-Carnuntum

• Entertaining tour of the reconstructed Roman city quarter including Lucius’ house,
Villa Urbana and Roman public baths.

• Drill with the strict centurio: under the exacting eyes of the centurion march in
step together and learn the basic rules of Roman military discipline.

• Donning Roman armour: the legionary’s outfit had many parts – such as lorica
(chain mail shirt), cassis (helmet), gladius, etc. Each team tries to dress a legionary
correctly, but please hurry – the sand in the hour-glass is running out.

• Venatio aprobum – hunting the wild boar with the ancient javelin: coordination,
speed and skill are what count here: the wooden boar has to be killed with the
pilum (Roman javelin).

• Menhir contest: it is not as heavy as Asterix’s and Obelix’s, but the teams have to
try to throw the menhir as far as possible.

• Nummi cudendi – minting coins: now it is time for Roman master coiners! Here
every participant can mint his/her own coin with a Roman motif and take it home
as a souvenir.

• Quinquies salire – 5-hop: the 5-hop was an authentic discipline in the Roman
pentathlon and requires 5 leaps forward as far as possible to win maximum points
for the team.

• Health and baths with the medicus: uniquely throughout the world, functioning
Roman public baths have been erected on the original site in Carnuntum.
Accompanied by a medicus you will be taken back to the world of Roman baths.

• Prize-giving ceremony: The successful team will be awarded a golden laurel crown.
