Scenes from Trier

This is our second visit to Trier.  There is so much Roman history here that we don't realize when we think of Germany.  I wrote about Trier in more detail here when we visited back in 2019.  For this trip, we didn't focus on the history as much, but instead soaked up more of the atmosphere and enjoyeed the Christmas market.  Some highlights:

Porta Nigra -- the old Roman Gate


The Imperial Throne Room -- now used as a church.
The entire Porta Nigra can fit inside this space
