The Archaeological Park
The impressive replicas of the Roman city, such as the amphitheatre, the cosy hostel and the imposing harbour temple, which catches the eye from afar, invite you to explore and dream. The LVR-Römermuseum brings the history of the former inhabitants back to life. Archaeological finds reveal the everyday lives of the people who lived in this multicultural city thousands of years ago. An exciting walk through the history of the Romans on the Lower Rhine awaits you, from the first settlement to the construction and heyday of the Roman city and the destruction of the late antique fortification Tricensimae.
