Ancient Roman architecture in Trier, St. Peter's Cathedral and Notre Dame Cathedral (C, 1986)

The ancient Roman architecture, St Peter's Cathedral and Notre Dame Cathedral in Trier are the oldest German cities, located in the southwest of Rhine-Pfalcz province, on the banks of the Mo Ze River near the Luxemburg border. Opened in 16 BC, it was once the residence of Caesar (deputy emperor) during the reign of the four emperors of the Roman Empire. Trier is not the only German city that claims to be the oldest, but as a "city" rather than a colony or military station, it has a history of more than 2,000 years and is indeed the oldest in Germany. Trier is the earliest Christian parish on the northern side of the Alps. In the Middle Ages, Archbishop Trier was an important vassal of the church. His parish controls a large area from the French border to the Rhine. Archbishop Trier was also one of the seven electors of the Holy Roman Empire. Trier is also famous for being the birthplace of Marx. Trier is a famous tourist city. Trier enjoys a unique geographical location. From here, not only Damozel River, Sal River, Rouville River, Mount Eiffel and Hongxiluke Mountain can be reached quickly, but also neighboring countries such as Luxemburg, Belgium and France are close at hand. In addition to the beautiful natural landscape, there are a lot of historical sites left over from ancient Rome, which should not be missed.

Trier's Cultural Heritage:

Porta Nigra: Also known as the Black Gate, it is the gate of ancient Rome, with a width of about 36 meters and a height of 30 meters. It is the symbol of Trier. Negraman is the best preserved ancient Roman gate in the northern Alps. The Negraman was first built in about 180. At that time, the ancient Romans liked to build buildings with large cubic bricks, and the largest one in the Negraman weighed 6 tons. Sandstone blocks mined from nearby are cut with bronze saws instead of cement accumulation, and cross stones are fixed with iron hooks. The construction of the Negraman took two to four years, but it was not completely completed. For example, the hole for installing the hinge has been drilled, but the rotating shaft of the gate has not been machined, so the movable gate has not been placed. Simeon, a Byzantine Greek monk, lived in seclusion in the gatehouse of Nigra after 1028. 1035 was buried on the ground floor of the city gate after his death and was regarded as a saint. Trier people built a two-story church at the gate of Negra to commemorate him, and now you can see the semi-circular back hall of the church on the gate. Because the church only needed one tower, another tower at the gate was demolished at that time, and this major reconstruction still left traces on the gate; Trier's amphitheater: a theater in Roman times. The building was built in BC 100, providing viewing space for about 20,000 people. Kaiser Gate; Constantine-basilica: Named after Constantine the Great, it is the coronation hall of Constantine the Great. The interior is 67 meters long, 27.2 meters wide and 33 meters high. Barbarathermen: Built in 200 BC, the scale was about 65,438+072 m× 240 m at that time, but today only the largest bathing beach is preserved, because its stones have been removed for hundreds of years to be used as houses and church structures; Romer Bruck; Igle Su Le: It is the northern part of the Alps, and only the original Roman tombstone remains on the ground, a 23-meter-high pillar monument made of red sandstone; Trier Church: It is the oldest episcopal church in Germany. In Roman Catholic times, it was the church of Notre Dame in Trier parish. Liebfrauenkirche: Adjacent to Trier Cathedral, located in the center of Trier. Elisabethkirche in Marburg is the earliest Gothic building in Germany.
