Trier
The oldest city in Germany
A walk through the 16 BC founded Trier is an overwhelming journey through the millennia. No other place in Germany gives you a better chance to experience the time of the Romans. Additionally, you also get to discover masterpieces of Romanticism, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque. Trier's UNESCO World Heritage includes eight monuments. Six Roman monuments - including the famous Porta Nigra - , the "Trierer Dom" (Trier Cathedral) and the "Liebfrauenkirche" (Church of Our Lady) form the unique ensemble.

However, the great emperor's residence does not only spoil you with treasures of impressive architecture.
On the Hauptmarkt (Main Market), the historical market square in the middle of the city, European cultures and cuisines meet one another. Restaurants, cafés and shops form a nice contrast to the world heritage sites.

Trier's location in the corner of four countries gives you many opportunities for new experiences: Luxembourg is right at Trier's doorstep, in only 45 minutes by car you are at the French border and in only a few minutes more already in Belgium.
Our advice for your rendezvous of the senses in Trier:
Spoil your eyes with a walk through the vineyards. Afterwards, try an original Roman dish and a fine wine from the Moselle!
