    A section of a Roman aqueduct from the Eifel to Cologne

      The Eifel aqueduct - also known as the Roman Canal or Roman Aqueduct to Cologne - was one of the longest aqueducts of the Roman Empire and is considered to be the longest aqueduct north of the Alps. The system supplied the then Roman city of Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium, ancient Cologne, with water for the public fountains, thermal baths and private house connections.
