Gamzigrad
Serbia, Serbia
Gamzigrad, located near the village of the same name in eastern Serbia, is the archaeological site of Felix Romuliana, a late Roman fortified palace complex built in the late 3rd and early 4th centuries AD by Emperor Galerius to honor his mother Romula. This UNESCO World Heritage site features expansive walls with 30+ towers enclosing basilicas, temples, thermal baths, a palace, and a memorial complex for Galerius's family, uniquely blending imperial residence with sacred funerary functions amid rural crossroads. Sacked by Huns in the 5th century, rebuilt under Justinian with added basilicas, and abandoned by the 7th century due to Slavic-Avar invasions, its ruins reveal mosaics, porphyry sculptures, and inscriptions confirming its role in Tetrarchy-era Roman architecture.
