There are so many beautiful ones and you keep discovering new beautiful details. The cathedral is impressive, but the Church of Our Lady right next door is gigantic. But there's a lot …

Today with the €9.00 ticket on the way from Otzenhausen to Trier. Photographed one or the other sight during a city tour. I'm amazed 😲, the ride was short (approx. 1:12 h), it was fun. I can recommend it.

The tour through Trier is always fascinating because of the great buildings, churches, parks, Trier's history, etc. 😉🙂 The …

On the way back from Luxembourg we did another round through Trier.
Of course, started at the Porta Nigra and via the market square to the double church Dom-Liebfrauenkirche. The former could be visited, the latter not because of a church service. The Constantine Basilica and the Electoral Palace are also built to save space. Watched the thunder and lightning …
