This was a huge tower guarding the entry into the Roman town of 'Versunna'. Well preserved for safety there is a ramp for wheelchair users. Studying the inside walls you can see where the roof beams were and the staircases to different floors.

This tower are the remains of a temple dedicated to goddess Vesunna and it is worth visiting after a visit to the museum. Only the core remains but a few pieces of what was probably part of the outer columns remain scattered in the park.

Per ongeluk reden we erop af terwijl we bezig waren de stad te verlaten. De dag ervoor zochten we het. Maar ineens 'torende' het voor ons op. Dus vlakbij een parkeerplek gezocht en toch maar gaan kijken. Ik vond het indrukwekkend om te zien hoe hoog en hoe dik deze 'toren' is. (Te bedenken dat ze toen geen hijskranen e.d. hadden.) De borden ter plekke geven aan hoe groot de totale tempel was. Helaas is er niet zoveel bekend over de Keltische godin Vesunna en ik denk dat het daarom ook is, dat het niet de liefde en aandacht krijgt dat deze oude eens zeer belangrijke plek zou moeten krijgen. Jammer!
