Accessibility in Carnuntum
Wheelchair access
Roman City Quarter (limited accessibility)
From the parking lot, you can reach the ticket office and wheelchair barrier-free via gravel paths that are flat and easy to navigate to a central information island in the grounds. From here you have a view of the Roman quarter and can experience the interior of the reconstructed houses via a recorded film.
The faithfully reconstructed Roman houses have a few steps and uneven surfaces. The Roman road surrounds these houses and is only partially accessible with wheelchairs and baby carriages.
With the help of mobile lightweight carbon ramps (length 208.5 cm, inner width 76 cm, load capacity 350 kg, weight 7 kg), the Roman baths and the villa urbana can be easily experienced. These mobile ramps, as well as wheelchairs, are available at the ticket office and at several points in the grounds.
We kindly ask you to notify us by telephone a few days before your visit and find out about the conditions on site. Groups with booked guided tours are requested to inform us of their requirements at the time of booking. There is a disabled toilet at the main entrance and in the sanitary building on the grounds and in our museum restaurant.
