367 DE - Roman Monuments, Cathedral of St Peter and Church of Our Lady in Trier (1986)

Brief Description

"Trier, which stands on the Moselle River, was a Roman colony from the 1st century AD and then a great trading centre beginning in the next century. It became one of the capitals of the Tetrarchy at the end of the 3rd century, when it was known as the ‘second Rome’. The number and quality of the surviving monuments are an outstanding testimony to Roman civilization."

"特里尔位于摩泽尔河畔,在公元1世纪时是罗马殖民地。从公元2世纪开始,逐渐发展成了一个伟大的贸易中心。到了公元3世纪末,这里则成了四帝制(Tetrarchy)的首都之一,称作“第二罗马”。它的保护完好的大量历史遗迹都是罗马文明的有力证据。"
