    The remains of Carnuntum and the historical heritage of the Romans are inseparably linked to the small market town. The Petronell-Carnuntum local walk tells exciting stories of the once vibrant Roman metropolis and the eventful times that followed. You hear about Ottoman attacks and crusades but also about stone guards and influential castle owners.
