One memorable gathering ENERGOPROJEKT PENSIONERS’ ASSOCIATION ORGANIZED EXCURSION t the end of October, a group of about twenty Energoprojekt A pensiones, in the organization of their association, visited northeastern Serbia. The one-day tour began in Viminacium, one of the most impor- tant archaeological sites on the territory of Serbia near Kostolac. The capital of the Roman province of Upper Moesia with a military camp, one of the two most extensive in the region, was built on the banks of Europe’s largest river, the Danube, and it spreads on over several thousand hectares. From this city, the Roman emperors and their legions planned and carried out conquests along the Danube River. For that reason, several Roman emperors lived and reigned in this city, from Hadrian to Constantine the Great. Our guide has knowingly and inspiringly told us the details of several excavated and protected parts of this great city. We found the remains of a public bath (Roman baths) very interesting, as well as the amphitheatre, an aqueduct, a mausoleum and a necropolis. Turkish and Serbian hands.
