Kelten- & Römermuseum Manching and its collection

Kelten- & Römermuseum Manching
Source

The Kelten-Römer-Museum, located in Manching, approximately ten kilometers southeast of Ingolstadt, is a branch of the Archaeological State Collection Munich. The museum was inaugurated on June 2, 2006, and offers a unique insight into the history and culture of the Celts and Romans.

Exhibits and Notable Finds

The museum showcases finds and exhibits from the nearby Oppidum of Manching. Among these, the treasure discovered in 1999, consisting of 483 gold coins (shell staters), holds significant importance as it is the largest Celtic gold find of the 20th century.

Roman Military Ships

The museum's centerpiece is two 15-meter-long Roman military ships dating back to around 100 AD. These shipwrecks were discovered in 1986 in a silted-up side arm of the Danube in the Manching district of Oberstimm, next to the former site of Kastell Oberstimm.
