Trier Historical - in costum
Travel back to the year 379 AD and accompany the copa Edana on her journey through Augusta Treverorum!
Edana's ancestors belonged to the Treveri, the proud Celtic (gallic) tribe that settled in this place many centuries earlier.
Learn about the everyday life as an innkeeper in ancient times, while Edana takes you on her usual errands through the town and tells you all kinds of stories from the traditions of more than 20 generations of her ancestors, but also about the Romans and what they brought with them to their homeland. Hear about the Gallic wars and the founding and expansion of Augusta Treverorum. Find out how life has changed for the people in this region and how Edana came to have its own taberna. Marvel at how the city became an imperial residence and the changes brought by Christianity.
Through her work in the inn, Edana naturally knows a lot about the merchants, the craftsmen, the gladiators, the legionnaires, the slaves, but also the rich and even the members of the imperial family.
Of course, a close look at the imposing buildings is a must. Discover, for example, the magnificent northern city gate or the monumental church complex of Emperor Constantine. Pay a visit to Emperor Gratian in his audience hall and experience how the Romans liked to spend their days in one of the city's thermal baths.
Duration: approx.. 120 minutes
Language: German (English version will be available later)
