About Rottweil

Rottweil is the oldest city inBaden-Württembergbeing founded asArae Flaviaein 73 CE and named after the then ruling dynasty of theRoman Empire. However, the Roman settlement was never all that big and only in 1950 did archeologists positively identify Arae Flaviae, which had been mentioned in various sources, including theTabula Peutingeriana, with modern Rottweil. The town lends its name to the (nowadays far more famous) dog breed, believed to descend from Roman drover dogs.
