What remains of a great 4th-century Roman arch, on the outskirts of the ancient city. It stands alone among cereal fields south of Petronell and is the image of Carnuntum. Access is free and it is always open. From the Roman quarter it is about 1.5 km: on foot, on a nextbike or by car, with a small car park beside it.
