A unique book that will guide you through the history and culture of the Roman Empire by touch and hearing, as well as by vision. In this book you will find exhibits that are part of the collection fund of the Slovak National Museum, the Museum of the City of Bratislava, and the Danube Museum in Komárno.

The book combines traditional book production techniques for the people with vision impairment with the achievements of the digital environment. The texts of the book are written in Braille and enlarged black print. The pictures are works of art and depict various buildings and objects in reliefs and drawings, so they are a pleasure for the hand and the eye. A CD with the recorded texts of the book is waiting for you on the back cover of the book. With the help of QR codes, which are provided throughout the book, you can use the audio version of Romans once or twice. The concept of the book is based on the school curriculum of the history subject for elementary school students, but the texts are also suitable for adult readers.
