This is a wonderful attraction for the entire family and one can easily spend a whole day here. Many original artifacts can be witnessed, quite a few things have been restored or recreated. The atmosphere is fantastic, suddenly you may have a feeling of being in a time machine when you are inside the Roman houses of Carnuntum. Some of the artifacts are located quite far from the main area, but they are reachable by a shuttle bus. There's a nice restaurant on the territory where you either can take a snack, drink beverages, or have a complete dinner with a wiener schnitzel, pasta, soup, and delicious deserts. Easily reachable from Vienna and Bratislava by train. Very affordable. Highly recommended.

Good way to spend half a day with kids. Unlike with other Roman ruins, they brought this one to life by partially reconstructing some of the houses, and furnishing them as they must have looked 2,000 years ago. The highlight of our visit was the main villa, where the floor heating and the baths were fully functioning. They also provide guided, interactive tours. The ticket actually includes 5 Roman attractions, which are all close by. You can also combine this visit with some cycling in the area or a visit to Schlosshof castle (just a few kilometers away), to make this a full-day trip.

I've been there both in normal days and in events (Römerfest, Spätantike). On normal days you can have guided tours and explore the archeological site. On events there are people dressed in character and a program of different attractions, which I super recommend. When visiting the museum, use the opportunity and go to amphitheater ruins and the Heidentor too, which are other related attractions of the city. Note: bringing a snack is a good idea. There is a restaurant that is accessible in the museum but the food can take long (and they may close the kitchen).

We have been her for 3 times in last 20 year, each time some new buildings finished/ rebuilt. Our most favorite museum. You can touch, feel and enjoy the old Rome Empire atmosphere than nowhere else in the world
