You have to go and see - A place where you do not have to imagine anything, some buildings have been completely reconstructed, including decoration, furniture, objects.... and where you just expect the owner of the house, a Roman of the 4th century, and his family to come up and invite you to have lunch. The baths were also working as in Roman times, incredible. As archaeologist that have visited so many Roman sites, this is fantastic and extremely educational, kids will enjoy and understand Roman life in a blink of an eye. We walked also to the triumphal arch, that is quite impressive, and the civil amphitheater, quite big, as well as the Museum of Carnuntum, not very big, but it is worthwhile for the marvelous pieces that you will see. The only con is the lack of public transport to see all the archeological landmarks. We arrived by train to Petronell-Carnuntum and were on foot. To go to the museum we had to walk 20 mins. back to the railway station, wait for the train (they are not many), go to Bad Deutsch-Alterburg, and walk 15 mins., so we unluckily had to skip the visit to the militar amphitheater, that lies in the middle and it was far away from any railway station.

Passable - "Theatrical" museum with some interesting pieces. In summer there is a "recreation festival" where hundreds of people, sometimes drunk, worship a certain Geza, who plays the role of emperor and pays these people, with public money, to suck up to him and treat him like that. : An emperor.
