Following the left bank of the Lower Rhine River for approximately 400 km from the Rhenish Massif in Germany to the North Sea coast in the Netherlands, the transnational property consist of 102 components from one section of the frontiers of the Roman Empire, which in the 2nd century CE, stretched across Europe, the Near East, and North Africa, over 7,500 km. The property comprises military and civilian sites and infrastructure that marked the edge of Lower Germany from the 1st to 5th centuries CE. Archaeological remains in the property include legionary fortresses, forts, fortlets, towers, temporary camps, roads, harbours, a fleet base, a canal and an aqueduct, as well as civilian settlements, towns, cemeteries, sanctuaries, an amphitheatre, and a palace. Almost all of these archaeological remains are buried underground. Waterlogged deposits in the property have enabled a high degree of preservation of both structural and organic materials from the Roman periods of occupation and use.
罗马帝国边境--下日耳曼界墙
从德国的莱茵山地到荷兰的北海沿岸，下日耳曼界墙由莱茵河下游左岸约400公里沿线的102个遗产点组成，是罗马帝国边境的一部分。公元2世纪，罗马帝国横跨欧洲、近东和北非，跨度超过7500公里。这些遗产点包括标识公元1-5世纪的下日耳曼边疆的军事和民用遗迹以及基础设施。该遗产地的考古遗迹包括军事基地、堡垒、塔楼、临时营地、道路、港口、舰队基地、运河和渡槽，以及平民居住区、城镇、墓地、避难所、圆形剧场和宫殿。几乎所有这些考古遗迹都埋在地下。遗迹中的浸水沉积物使罗马占领时期的结构和有机材料得到高度完好的保存。
