LEGIO VI FERRATA FIDELAS CONSTANS is a living history organization dedicated to recreating the life and times of Roman Soldiers and Civilians in the early 1st Century A.D.

The nickname "Ferrata" or "The Iron Legion" was awarded to the Legion in fighting in Gaul under Julius Caesar. The "Fidelas Constans" or "Loyal and Steady" was awarded in the mid 1st Century AD.

The Legion participates in Christian dramas, school presentations, living history days, military timelines, encampments and immersion events, museum events, Italian, Scottish, and Greek Festivals, SCA Fairs, and other events in South Carolina and the Southeast. We also plan and host our own events across the country including our annual event, Castra Romana
www.CastraRomana.com
