Ground-penetrating radar measurements were performed to investigate buried structures in the Roman city Claudium Aguntum in Tyrolia. Shielded antennas were used to cope with distortions from a significant infrastructure. A relatively low central frequency of 250 MHz was selected to penetrate a thick and complex overburden resulting from repeated flooding events. Measurements were conducted in four areas ranging from 70 to 625 m². Despite difficult conditions, several foundation structures could be identified down to 3 m depth, including parts of the Thermae and the Forum. Measurements over the supposed location of the
deeply buried remnants of the city wall indicate a portal at » 5 m depth. The interpreted structures contribute
towards a better understanding of the only antique city in Tyrolia, and they will facilitate future excavation
campaigns.
