Roman Ruins Seen Under a Bank’s Floor

Hungary requires any new building, new road, or any new construction to have the site first evaluated by an archaeologist to ensure that old Roman ruins are preserved.  One downtown bank in Szombathely found 2,000 year-old Roman ruins as they were digging the foundation.Brenda Looking thru the Bank's Glass Floor

They preserved the ruins ‘in-place’ by putting in a glass floor so that while standing in the bank you can see the old Roman road beneath your feet.Looking down through the Floor

You go into the bank and look down through the glass floor.  You can see the remains of an old Roman road, and an entry into a dwelling.  The road surface is about eight feet below the bank’s floor.Old Roman Column up through the Glass Floor

They have extended one old column from the Roman road surface, up through the bank’s floor, and up to the bank’s ceiling.Roman Column in a Bank
