Legio VI Victrix Cohors II Cimbria is a Scandinavian Roman reenactment group founded in Denmark, with a chapter in Sweden and members from Germany. Its military and civilian participants recreate legionary life and the Roman Iron Age, focusing on the late first century AD and the connections between the Roman Empire and the regions north of Germania Inferior, including the Cimbrian peninsula and Scandia. The group brings history to life through period clothing, weapons, equipment, food, drink, historical crafts, and demonstrations of life on the march.

Its civilian members contribute knowledge, shops, and practical skills to portray everyday life. Cohors II Cimbria takes part in events across Scandinavia and Europe, and has contributed to film, television, and museum exhibitions. Members also lecture at universities, museums, and other institutions.

Outside the summer event season, the group researches, develops its historical knowledge, and refines its equipment in light of archaeological discoveries and new interpretations. Through reenactment and education, it shares the history of Rome and its northern neighbours with the public
