The museum of Roman artifacts is exceptional, good descriptions in English as well as German and with a good audio guide as well.
This site is worth a visit to better understand the true history of Germany. Bring a Picknick basket and enjoy the day at the site. It has plenty of history and for the kids, play parks and things to do.
We enjoyed our walk around the park but the museum staff watch you like hawks, popping up over your shoulder at every turn and overly rule laden.. don’t do this, don’t stand there, don’t touch that etc. Made us feel uncomfortable. Totally unnecessary for four...More

The museum is fantastic with a very nice modern building and interesting artifacts including a boat and a large area of the bath ruins. The park itself is disappointing since the above ground items are all reconstructed but there are interesting items that have been...More
