Petronell-Carnuntum

After your journey through history, you have the option to enhance your experience with a delightful lunch at a traditional local restaurant. Here, you can savor regional specialties paired with a glass of locally produced red wine—crafted in the same lands where Roman settlers once cultivated vineyards. This wine has been mentioned in ancient Roman texts, and to this day, local winemakers continue the centuries-old tradition of viticulture. While this stop is optional, we highly recommend taking the time to enjoy this authentic taste of history, blending culinary heritage with the rich cultural legacy of Carnuntum.
