The fort of 134 × 126 m[2] was built as part of the Roman Moesian Limes frontier system of linked forts along the Danube. Domitian replaced the wood and earth walls by stone walls in 87 AD before Domitian's Dacian War.

It was completely restored in the second half of the 3rd century. In the 4th c. protruding semicircular corner-towers were added.[3]

An early Christian basilica was discovered on the site.[4]
