The castra of Odorheiu Secuiesc was a fort built in the 1st century AD.[1][2] A nearby contemporary settlement was also archeologically identified.[1] The castra and the settlement were abandoned in the 3rd century.[1][2] Their ruins are located in Odorheiu Secuiesc (Hungarian: Székelyudvarhely) in Romania.[1][2] At the same settlement, the ruins of a Roman tower can also be identified at Piatra Coţofană (Hungarian: Szarkakő).[4]
