## Visit Rhineland Museum

Activities

#### See one of the world’s largest Roman gold collections and learn about the first settlers and oldest tools found in this ancient region.

The Rhineland Museum (Rheinisches Landesmuseum) has one of Germany’s most significant collections of archeological material, renowned for its focus on the rich Roman history of Trier as well as its sections on prehistory and the Middle Ages. Follow the museum circuit for a more complete understanding of German history.

Arrive at the museum and admire its pink façade and dark turrets behind a serene lawn. Enter through the large central portal and look around the exhibits.

Take a guided tour of the site, in English or other languages, for a more comprehensive understanding of the displays. Qualified guides take visitors on a range of tours, including such themes as *200,000 Years of History* from the Stone Age to the electors.

View the multimedia production *In the Realm of Shadows* dealing with Trier’s Roman history. Trier was known as Augusta Treverorum in Roman times and rose to prominence as a major player in the Gallic Empire through the 5th century.

Browse the intriguing relics in the *200,000 Years of History* exhibit, which provides evidence that Trier is Germany’s oldest-surviving city. Examine the oldest manmade tools found here and learn about the first settlements. Use the audio guide and see the spectacular coin collection of more than 2,600 gold coins.

Bring kids to take part in the scavenger hunt and museum quiz. Educational programs and workshops help to inspire children to learn about the Stone Age, Roman era and Middle Ages. Schedule a birthday party in this unique setting.

Note that the museum has long been an important part of Trier’s culture, having been inaugurated in 1877\. It opens Tuesday through Sunday from morning until late afternoon. There is a fee to enter. Admission is discounted for children and students.

The Rhineland Museum is in the heart of the historic center of Trier. Ride the railway to Trier Süd or the main Hbf station and walk about 15 minutes to reach the museum. It is just north of the Imperial Baths and south of the Palastgarten, the Konstantin Basilica and the Kurfürstliches Palais.
