The Porta Nigra is the landmark of Trier and a clear witness that the Romans were once here. The "Black Gate" is the best preserved Roman city gate in Germany and part of the UNESCO World Heritage. In the building there is a fairly modern multimedia guide with all the information about the gate and the city of Trier.

... awesome old walls ... the most impressive thing was how deep the city around the gate was probably earlier ... considering what has happened in all these centuries, so that today stairs lead down to this level ... pure history to touch. You just have to see this great city 🤗

It's amazing how old this world heritage site is. In the middle of the city, what has it probably experienced...

The Porta Nigra, also known as the Porta, is the old Roman city gate in Trier. Worth seeing! Even if you consider that the Porta Nigra was already built in 170 AD.
