Trier on the Moselle is the oldest city in Germany and has over 2,000 years of history. Founded as Augusta Treverorum, the city was the largest north of the Alps in the 3rd and 4th centuries and the residence of Roman emperors — this heritage is still visible today in impressive buildings that are part of the UNESCO World Heritage.

The Porta Nigra, the mighty Roman city gate from the 2nd century, is the best-preserved Roman city gate north of the Alps and Trier's unmistakable landmark. Over 7,200 sandstone blocks, held together without mortar only by iron clamps, form the 30-meter-high structure. The Constantine Basilica, originally the throne room of Emperor Constantine, is the largest preserved single room of antiquity with its massive dimensions. The Imperial Baths, the amphitheater for 20,000 spectators, and the Roman Bridge — the oldest bridge in Germany — complete the Roman heritage.

St. Peter's Cathedral, Germany's oldest bishop's church, combines 1,700 years of construction history from Roman antiquity to Baroque. Directly attached is the Gothic Church of Our Lady, one of the oldest Gothic churches in Germany. Karl Marx was born in Trier in 1818; his birthplace on Brükenstraße is now a museum. The location on the Moselle makes Trier an ideal starting point for wine tastings in the steepest vineyards in Europe — Riesling from Piesport, Bernkastel-Küs, and Trittenheim ranks among the world's best.
