The Castra of Tirighina-Bărboși was a fort in the Roman province of Moesia.

It was a bridgehead fort on the north bank of the Danube near the confluence of the Siret.

The archaeological complex covers approximately 10 hectares and includes the remains of a Roman fort, two Roman necropolises, one of which is a tumulus, a civil settlement on the Siretului plateau and in the western area of the Dunărea neighbourhood of Galăția. It was built in the time of Trajan shown by a marble slab. Coins dating from the periods of Trajan, Antoninus Pius and Philip the Arab were discovered.

Its occupation continued until the 4th century, after most of Roman Dacia had been abandoned.
