Augusta Vindelicorum
Augusta Vindelicorum was the Roman town that became Augsburg, which grew from a military base set up after the Roman conquest of the Alpine region in 15 BCE. Named after Augustus and the Vindelici people, it became the capital of the province of Raetia and a station on the Via Claudia Augusta. Its continuous settlement makes Augsburg one of Germany's oldest cities.
