The castra of Aradul Nou was a fort in the Roman province of Dacia, located in a modern neighborhood of Arad in Romania. Bricks bearing the name of two Roman legions (Legio IV Flavia Felix and Legio XIII Gemina) were unearthed at this location. Built under Emperor Trajan and abandoned thereafter, this auxiliary fort protected the road leading from Micia to Partiscum (Szeged, Hungary).
