The amphitheatre of Aquincum, Nagyszombat street

In 2021, the local government of District III of Budapest had three information boards installed as a contribution to the project entitled “Complex touristic development of the Roman limes at Óbuda-Aquincum” (VEKOP-4.1.2-17-2018-00001). Two of these were set up in the area between Nagyszombat Street, Pacsirtamező Street and Zápor Street, near the amphitheatre of the military town, while the third one was installed at the ruins near Kórház Street, in front of the east gate of the one-time legionary camp. Reconstruction drawings of the monument, prepared by the author, have also been put on display at both sites, who shares, in the present paper, some background information about the boards, and discusses the questions of theo-retical and actual reconstructions and their presentation
