The watchtower is a symbol of vigilance, strength and readiness of the Roman army. Similar towers appeared on the Limes (Latin: Limes), the border of the Roman Empire.

From it, legionaries transmitted signals, controlled enemy movements and commanded the defense of the fort. With this set you can build a detailed model of a Roman watchtower and begin creating your own empire. It's the perfect addition to the collection of any brick enthusiast and ancient history lover! The Roman watchtower, the eyes and guard of the empire! The tall, wooden structure is the first line of defense against danger. A vigilant guard from the tower scanned the horizon for the enemy, ready to raise the alarm at any moment. Towers of this type were an integral part of Roman military camps (castrum). The solid structure towered over the palisade, giving the legionaries a tactical advantage.
