Führung: Dem römischen Hafen auf der Spur… mit Prof. Dr. Heinz Günter Horn und PD Dr. Thomas Otten

In the organizer's words:

The port was certainly the most important "transshipment point" in Roman Cologne. Building materials as well as many everyday goods were landed there. In the 1st century AD, it was located on an arm of the Rhine between Rheingasse and Trankgasse.

It has left hardly any traces in today's cityscape and yet we now know a great deal about it. The guided tour led by Heinz Günter Horn and Thomas Otten explores this on site. Of course, there will be a lot of archaeology, stories

stories and history.

The number of participants is limited to a maximum of 35 people.

Costs: Members of Römergrab Weiden e.V. and MiQua- Freunde e.V. free, guests €5 (reduced €3.50).
