Ljubljana, Gregorčičeva ulica
Being the first town in the Ljubljana Basin built according to a plan, Emona was one of the many cities making up an extensive and unprecedented system. From Western Europe to Northern Africa, there were cities with recognisable Roman characteristics: a typical layout featuring streets, squares, baths, theatres and temples.
The most vibrant part of the Roman city of Emona was its central square, the forum. The forum's little shops sold table ceramics coated with a high-quality red glaze, fine glassware and metal vessels, amber jewellery, fragrances, spices and precious fabrics imported from faraway lands.
Severna emonska vrata
Northern town gate of Emona
V mogočnem obzidju rimske Emone so bila 4 glavna vrata. Skozi tukajšnja, severna vrata je v mesto vodila cesta, ki je Emono povezovala s Celejo (današnje Celje) in Petoviono (današnji Ptuj).
The mighty walls of Roman Emona had four main gates. The road connecting Emona with Celeia (today's Celje) and Poetovio (today's Ptuj) reached the town through this gate, i.e. the northern gate. The walls were surrounded by a moat. Wide, well-maintained roads led to the city.
Zidan rimski vodnjak ob vhodu v garažno hišo Kongresni trg (eden takšnih, kakršne so v Emoni uporabljali tudi še po napeljavi mestnega vodovoda v 2. stoletju).
Najživahnejši del rimske Emone je bil njen osrednji trg, forum. Forumske trgovinice so prodajale uvoženo namizno keramiko s kakovostnim rdečim premazom, fino stekleno in kovinsko posodje, nakit iz jantarja, dišave, začimbe in dragocene tkanine iz daljnih dežel.

Ljubljana praznuje jubilej rimske Emone
V Arheološkem parku Emonska hiša je ohranjen del rimske večstanovanjske hiše. Hiša je bila tako kot večina stanovanjskih stavb v mestu zgrajena v 1. stoletju, njeni ostanki pa večinoma izvirajo iz časa njene zadnje prenove na prehodu med 4. in 5. stoletjem. Hiša je sodeč po kakovostni stavbni opremi nudila dom premožni emonski družini. Imela je talno in stensko ogrevanje, stene sob so bile ometane in poslikane, tla pa so bila prekrita z različnimi vrstami tlaka, vključno z dragocenimi mozaiki. Imela je tudi lastno stranišče na izplakovanje, iz katerega so odplake po hišnem odtočnem kanalu odtekale v mestno kanalizacijo.
Emonan House Archaeological Park (the remains of a room with a hypocaust, floor mosaic and fresco)
The Emona House Archaeological Park contains the remains of a part of a multi-unit residential building. Like most of Emona's residential buildings, the house was constructed in the 1st century, but most of its remains date from the time of its last renovation at the turn of the 5th century. Judging from the high-quality building finishes and utilities, the house was the home of a wealthy family. It had underfloor and wall heating, the walls of its rooms were rendered and painted, and the floors were covered with various kinds of paving, including precious mosaics. The house had its own flush toilets connected to a house sewer, which carried waste water to the city's sewage system.
Ostanki sobe, ogrevane s hipokavstom, rimskim sistemom talnega ogrevanja. Soba je imela pod podom na stebričkih prostor za kroženje toplega zraka, ki je prek votlih opek ogreval tudi stene.
The remains of a room heated by a hypocaust, a Roman system of underfloor heating. Warm air from the furnace was led through open spaces below the floor, which rested on columns and vaults, and up into the walls of hollow brick.
Hiša velika okolo 500m2 je bila razdeljena na posamezne stanovanjske enote. Te so imele ločene vhode in dostop do skupnega dvorišča. Udobno urejeni domači prostori so izkazovali premožnost lastnika in visok nivo rimske bivanjske kulture.
The house of around 500 m2 was divided into individual dwelling units. These had separate entrances and access to a shared courtyard. Comfortably designed homes were a sign of both their owners' prosperity and the high level of Roman housing culture.
Rimski zid
Emonsko mestno obzidje je bilo visoko od šest do osem metrov, široko pa skoraj dva metra in pol. Imelo je več kot 20 stolpov. Na severni, zahodni in južni strani je bilo obdano z dvema več metrov globokima jarkoma, napolnjenima z vodo. Roman wall
The city wall of Emona was six to eight metres high and almost two and a half metres wide. It had more than 20 towers. On the north, west and south sides it was surrounded by two several-metre-deep moats filled with water.
Nekatera vrata v zidu so bila še v času Emone zazidana zaradi nevarnosti vpadov.
As protection against assault, some gates were walled up in Late Antiquity.

Na območju, kjer sta se malone stikali pomembna rimska cesta proti Balkanu in plovna reka Ljubljanica, ki je bila vse od prazgodovine pa do uvedbe železnice pomembna trgovska pot med severnim Jadranom in Podonavjem, so arheologi med drugim odkrili sledove lesenega rimskega vojaškega tabora, zgrajenega v začetku 1. stoletja. Ena od nalog vojakov, ki so bivali v njem, je bila verjetno izgradnja kolonije Emone. Ko je bila Emona v začetku 1. stoletja zgrajena, so vanjo naselili koloniste, večinoma iz severne Italije. Tako kot v večini rimskih mest je bilo kmetijstvo osnovna dejavnost prebivalstva in lastništvo zemlje je pomenilo glavni vir bogastva in družbenega ugleda. Mesto je delovalo v skladu z rimsko politično ureditvijo.
On an area of land where an important Roman road to the Balkans almost touched the navigable river Ljubljanica, a major trading route between the Adriatic Sea and the Danubian basin, archaeologists found, among other things, traces of a wooden Roman military encampment built at the beginning of the 1st century AD. One of the assignments of the soldiers who lived there was probably the building of the colony of Emona. When Emona was built at the beginning of the 1st century, it was settled with colonists, mainly from northern Italy. Like in most Roman cities, agriculture was the main industry and land ownership the principal source of wealth and social prestige. The city was regulated in accordance with the Roman political system.
