  • Attivita' Progettuali
    Claudia Augusta è il nome dell’antica strada imperiale tracciata nel I sec.A.C. dal generale romano Druso e in seguito completata dal figlio, l’imperatore Claudio, allo scopo di mettere in comunicazione i porti adriatici con le pianure danubiane. Da Altino portava ad Augusta attraverso il Veneto, il Trentino, l’Alto Adige, il Tirolo e la Baviera. Per secoli essa ha costituito l’asse portante delle comunicazioni tra Sud e Nord, tra le regione adriatiche e le regione retiche, tra la cultura latina e quelle germanica. La costruzione di questa strada rese possibile uno scambio culturale ed economico oltre le Alpi e promosse mobilità, commercio ed economia in modo insistente. Il profilo storico e quello odierno della Via Claudia Augusta si riferiscono specialmente alla funzione di collegamento per lo sviluppo culturale, economico, turistico e sociale di territori e paesi lungo il suo percorso. Partendo da tale approccio è stato costruito il progetto Via Claudia Augusta, cofinanziato nell’ambito del Programma di iniziativa comunitaria Interreg IIIB – Spazio alpino cha ha per obiettivo la cooperazione transnazionale, lo sviluppo armonioso ed equilibrate dell’Unione, e l’integrazione territoriale. La strategia di bade del progetto Via Claudia Augusta è stata la promozione, su base transnazionale, del territorio interessato dall’antica strada romana coinvolgendo gli attori locali, le amministrazioni comunale e le associazioni nell’intendo di sviluppare un’immagine comune della Via, all’insegna dello sviluppo sostenibile e integrato delle risorse territoriali. L’obiettivo è stato pertanto quelle di promuovere e organizzare, nell’area attraversata da questa antica strada romana , azioni comuni in quattro settori di intervento; archeologia, cultura, turismo, marchio ed attività economiche.

  • Map 19 Raetia Compiled by H
    Map 19 Raetia Compiled by H. Bender, 1997 with the assistance of G. Moosbauer and M. Puhane Introduction The map covers the central Alps at their widest extent, spanning about 160 miles from Cambodunum to Verona. Almost all the notable rivers flow either to the north or east, to the Rhine and Danube respectively, or south to the Po. Only one river, the Aenus (Inn), crosses the entire region from south-west to north-east. A number of large lakes at the foot of the Alps on both its north and south sides played an important role in the development of trade. The climate varies considerably. It ranges from the Mediterranean and temperate to permafrost in the high Alps. On the north side the soil is relatively poor and stony, but in the plain of the R. Padus (Po) there is productive arable land. Under Roman rule, this part of the Alps was opened up by a few central routes, although large numbers of mountain tracks were already in use. The rich mineral and salt deposits, which in prehistoric times had played a major role, became less vital in the Roman period since these resources could now be imported from elsewhere. From a very early stage, however, the Romans showed interest in the high-grade iron from Noricum as well as in Tauern gold; they also appreciated wine and cheese from Raetia, and exploited the timber trade. Ancient geographical sources for the region reflect a growing degree of knowledge, which improves as the Romans advance and consolidate their hold in the north.

  • Via Claudia Augusta
    Via Claudia Augusta zeitloses Zitat (Emil Zátopek) Allein über die Alpen / 15.7. – 27.7.2013 Seite 1 Via Claudia Augusta Auf den Spuren der Römer über die Alpen Wandern auf der Via Claudia Augusta von Füssen / Bayern über den Reschen-Pass nach Meran / Südtirol Die Via Claudia Augusta war eine der wichtigsten Römerstraßen, die den süddeutschen Raum mit Norditalien verband. Vom Kastell „Submuntorium“ bei den Burghöfen, südlich von Mertingen, wo sie nahe der Donau mit der von Westen nach Osten verlaufenden römischen Donausüdstraße verbunden war, folgte sie flussaufwärts dem Lauf des Lechs über die Hauptstadt der römischen Provinz Raetia, Augusta Vindelicorum (heute Augsburg), bis nach Füssen. Von dort aus zog sie über den Fern- und Reschenpass zur Etsch, um dieser bis Trient (Tridentum) zu folgen. Hier teilte sich die Straße. Der westliche Strang erreichte über Verona den Po bei Ostiglia (Hostilia), der östliche über Feltre die Adria bei Altino (Altinum). Ein bedeutsamer Kreuzungspunkt dieser antiken Straße war Abodiacum, das heutige Epfach am Lechrain, wo die durch Rätien verlaufende Ost-West-Magistrale von Salzburg nach Brigantium (heute Bregenz) den Lech überquerte. Geschichte Kaiser Augustus ließ im Jahre 15 v. Chr. von seinen Stiefsöhnen Tiberius und Drusus die noch nicht eroberten Gebiete der Alpen und das nördliche Voralpengebiet zwischen Inn und dem Südschwarzwald erobern. Zur Erschließung der neuen, später Raetia genannten Provinz wurde bereits damals die Strecke von Feltria/Feltre über Tridentum (Trient) und den Reschenpass, das Oberinntal und den Fernpass bis zum Lech ausgebaut. Endgültig fertiggestellt, durchgängig für Fuhrwerke befahrbar, erneuert und bis zur Donau verlängert wurde die Straße unter Kaiser Claudius.
