Drobeta is an ancient city located in the modern town of Drobeta-Turnu Severin, Romania. It was originally a Dacian settlement before becoming an important Roman military and economic center. The city is particularly famous for the Trajan's Bridge, built by the Roman Emperor Trajan to facilitate the movement of troops during his campaigns against the Dacians in the early 2nd century AD. The archaeological remains of Drobeta, including parts of the bridge, a Roman castrum (fort), and a complex of baths, provide a glimpse into its historical significance and architectural achievements during the Roman era.
