Castra Of Drumul Carului
The castra of Drumul Carului was a fort in the Roman province of Dacia near Moieciu, Romania.
It was part of the Roman frontier system of the Limes Transalutanus and was in a strategic position south of the Bran Pass.
The small fort (castellum), approx. 40×40 m, was defended by earth works with two ditches. It might have been erected following the First Dacian War before the official integration of Dacia to the Roman Empire. Destroyed by fire, the fort was abandoned around 250.
