Roman vicus
In Roman times there was a vicus , a settlement of around three hectares , in the area of St. Michael and the neighboring St. Donat . It is located at the intersection of the Norican main road, which leads north from Virunum, and a west-east side road that led from the Liebenfels area to the city on the Magdalensberg . The beginnings go back to the early imperial era. The finds range from the second half of the first to the second half of the fourth century AD. It was located around 2.7 km north of the forum of Virunum , the capital of the province of Noricum . (new findings under discussion)
A Roman temple district was built over part of the vicus at the time of Emperor Hadrian . It is interpreted as consecrated to Hercules and the imperial cult and resembles urban Roman and provincial imperial cult fora. The floor plan is a slightly warped parallelogram . There are taberns on all four sides with a portico in front of them on the inside and which were probably accessible from the inner courtyard. In the south, a hall, also reconstructed as a porticus, has a total length of 38 meters. Due to the wall thickness, a two-storey development of the south wing can be assumed. In the middle of the south side was the entrance that led from the lower street into the temple precinct. In the middle of the west and east sides were two exedra with a radius of 6.6 meters. Inside the temple precinct was a podium temple . Fragments of life-size marble statues were found in the temple district, a votive altar to Hercules Augustus, and a bronze statuette of Hercules bibax in the wider area as early as 1984/86 .
