Event Date:
Start time: 10:00 Soldiers from the Roman Army re-enactment society return to Fishbourne Roman Palace. The sounds of swords clashing, shields banging and trumpets blaring can be heard at Fishbourne Roman Palace & Gardens this summer as the Ermine Street Guard set up at camp in the grounds of this Roman home north of the Alps. Over the weekend of 30th – 31st July, visitors can travel back 2,000 years in time to when the Romans ruled Britain, as soldiers from the Roman Army re-enactment society will be giving displays in the Palace’s formal garden, shooting artillery and providing live demonstrations of how the Roman Army prepared for combat. There will also be a range of Roman-themed activities on offer throughout the weekend and visitors can explore the mosaics and recreated grounds at the Roman home, which dates back to 75 AD.
