Located in southwestern Germany, in the Mosel wine region, near the Luxembourg border, Trier was founded under Augustus in 16 BC. Augusta Treverorum (Trier) became the second Rome. It is Germany's oldest city with buildings and monuments dating from Roman and even later periods. It contains several well-preserved Roman structures like the Porta Nigra gate, the ruins of Roman baths, an amphitheater just outside the center and a stone bridge over the Mosel River. The Archaeological Museum displays Roman artifacts. Among Trier's many Catholic churches is Trier Cathedral. The city is rich not only in art and tradition but also as one of Germany's largest wine exporters. This university town features a vibrant nightlife, and you won't want to miss the 'Altstadtfest' when the whole city is one big party with lots of live events, local food, wine and beer. Trier also has the distinction of being the birthplace of Karl Marx.
