Places to see in ( Trier - Germany )
Trier is a southwestern German city in the Moselle wine region, near the Luxembourg border. Founded by the Romans, it contains several well-preserved Roman structures like the Porta Nigra gate, the ruins of Roman baths, an amphitheater just outside the center and a stone bridge over the Moselle River. The Archaeological Museum displays Roman artifacts. Among Trier’s many Catholic churches is Trier Cathedral.
With an astounding nine Unesco World Heritage sites, Germany's oldest city shelters the country's finest ensemble of Roman monuments, among them a mighty gate, amphitheatre, elaborate thermal baths, Imperial throne room, and the country's oldest bishop's church, which retains Roman sections. Architectural treasures from later ages include Germany's oldest Gothic church, and Karl Marx' baroque birthplace. Trier's proximity to both Luxembourg and France is apparent in its cuisine and the local esprit, enlivened by some 15,000 students from its renowned university. The mostly pedestrianised city centre is filled with cafes and restaurants, many inside gorgeous Gothic or baroque buildings, while wineries are scattered throughout the surrounding vineyards.
Trier is rich in ruins from the Roman Empire (protected by UNESCO), such as the Porta Nigra, the Roman baths and Roman amphitheater. As Trier was founded by the Romans as Augusta Treverorum, it can claim the title of oldest German city. And unlike the somewhat provincial and quaint feel the town exudes today, it was actually one of the centers of power during the Imperial Crisis of the Third Century and certainly the most important Roman town of the province of Germania. Besides its ample Roman heritage, Trier is also known as the birth place of Karl Marx, a fact that the city has had difficulty grappling with during more anti-communist times but now widely markets for tourism.
Trier is known for its well-preserved Roman and medieval buildings, which include:
the Porta Nigra, the best-preserved Roman city gate north of the Alps;
the huge Constantine Basilica, a basilica in the original Roman sense, was the 67 m (219.82 ft) long throne hall of Roman Emperor Constantine; it is today used as a Protestant church; adjacent is the Electoral Palace, Trier;
the Roman Trier Amphitheater;
the 2nd century AD Roman bridge (Römerbrücke) across the Moselle, the oldest bridge north of the Alps still crossed by traffic;
ruins of three Roman baths, among them the largest Roman baths north of the Alps; including the Barbara Baths and the Trier Imperial Baths;
Trier Cathedral (German: Trierer Dom or Dom St. Peter), a Catholic church that dates back to Roman times; its Romanesque west façade with an extra apse and four towers is imposing and has been copied repeately; the Cathedral is home to the Holy Tunic, a garment said to be the robe Jesus was wearing when he died, as well as many other relics and reliquaries in the Cathedral Treasury;
the Liebfrauenkirche (German for Church of Our Lady), which is one of the most important early Gothic churches in Germany, in some ways comparable to the architectural tradition of the French Gothic cathedrals;
St. Matthias' Abbey (Abtei St. Matthias), a still-in-use monastery in whose medieval church the only apostle north of the Alps is held to be buried;
St. Gangolf's church is the city's 'own' church near the main market square (as opposed to the Cathedral, the bishop's church); largely Gothic;
Saint Paulinus' Church, one of the most important Baroque churches in Rhineland-Palatinate and designed in part by the architect Balthasar Neumann;
two old treadwheel cranes, one being the Gothic Old Crane (Alte Krahnen) or Trier Moselle Crane (Trierer Moselkrahn) from 1413, and the other the 1774 Baroque crane called the (Old) Customs Crane ((Alter) Zollkran) or Younger Moselle Crane (Jüngerer Moselkran) (see List of historical harbour cranes).

Places to see in ( Trier - Germany ) Hauptmarkt
After the Viking destruction of 882, the archbishop moved the market from the river to the present site, the Market Cross still commemorates this event from 958. The original of the cross is in the Municipal Museum; the column shaft is a recycled granite column from the Roman Cathedral.
The Market Fountain from 1595 shows St. Peter, the patron saint of the Cathedral as well as the city, standing on top, surrounded by the four cardinal virtues of good city government, Justice, Strength, Temperance, and Wisdom (originals in the Municipal Museum), but also by monsters and frolicking monkeys.
The fountain, just like the Cathedral and the parish and guild church St. Gangolf as well the Steipe, are all rooted in the 300-year struggle for supremacy in the city. Between the 10th and 12th centuries the Trier archbishops became both the ecclesiastical as well as the secular rulers. As bishop's church, the Cathedral was the ecclesiastical center of the city. This fact did not undermine the self-assurance of the townspeople: Thanks to a generous donation by the wealthy butcher's widow Adelheid von Besselich, the townspeople were able to increase the height of the tower of the Market Church St. Gangolf, allowing them to have the highest church tower in the city. The bishop, of course, had to react to this symbolic provocation. He had only enough money, however, to heighten just one of the two towers on the Cathedral, the south tower, by an additional Gothic story.
The secular building of the Steipe was located in such a position that the lord spiritual had to see it every day with its defiant battlements and the knights facing the Cathedral. The Main Market became the center of medieval Trier with:
the Steipe, the city council's banqueting house, with immediate access to the city church St. Gangolf (through the little baroque gate on the south side, the church itself is completely surrounded by stalls and houses),
the official city yardstick (reconstruction) at the Steipe,
the pillary (reconstructed on the south end of the market),
access to the Cathedral,
access to the Jewish Quarter
as well as to six streets altogether.

Germany: The City of Trier
Trier is a city in Germany on the banks of the river Moselle. It is the oldest city in Germany, founded in or before 16 BC.
Trier is well known for its well preserved Roman and medieval buildings.
This video shows:
- The Porta Nigra, the best preserved Roman city gate north of the Alps;
For details see my video: The porta Nigra in Trier
- The huge Constantine Basilica, a basilica in the original Roman sense, was the 67 m (219.82 ft) long. Throne hall of Roman Emperor Constantine; it is today used as a Protestant church.
- The Trier Cathedral (German: Trierer Dom or Dom St. Peter), a Roman Catholic church which dates back to Roman times and is home to the Holy Tunic, a garment with a recorded history back to the 12th century, in Catholic tradition said to be the robe Jesus was wearing when he died. It is only exhibited every few decades, at irregular intervals. This year 2012 you can see it.
- The Liebfrauenkirche (German for Church of Our Lady), which is one of the most important early Gothic cathedrals in Germany and falls into the architectural tradition of the French Gothic cathedrals;
- The 2nd century AD Roman bridge (Römerbrücke) across the Moselle, the oldest bridge north of the Alps still crossed by traffic;
- St. Gangolf Church was the city's market church that rivalled the Archbishop's Trier Cathedral.
- Two old treadwheel cranes, one being the Gothic Old Crane (Alte Krahnen) or Trier Moselle Crane (Trierer Moselkrahn) from 1413, and the other the 1774 Baroque crane called the (Old) Customs Crane ((Alter) Zollkran) or Younger Moselle Crane (Jüngerer Moselkran) (see List of historical harbour cranes)

Places to see in ( Trier - Germany ) St Paulin Kirche
Like St. Maximin`s, the former Collegiate Church of St. Paulin in the northern part of the city was erected in a Roman cemetery. The most remarkable features of the church are the ceiling paintings and the sculptures in the interior - instead of individual spatial impressions, a single unified whole awaits the visitor.
At the end of the 4th century, Bishop Felix had a church erected, 400 ft/120m long. Around AD 400, the remains of Paulinus, considered a martyr and saint, were brought to Trier. Paulinus had originally been a Bishop of Trier and had lived in exile in Phrygia (Asia Minor), where he died in AD 358. After a fire in 1093, a new structure was consecrated in 1148 by Pope Eugene III; it was then blown up in 1674.
The Archbishop-Elector himself paid for a new church construction. The interior furnishings and decoration clearly bear the stamp of Balthasar Newmann. His concept allows for the deft blending of different spaces into a unified whole.
Impressive for the observer are the numerous details, such as the high altar, the pulpit from the Cistercian monastery of Himmerod, the stucco work, the ceiling paintings and the other paintings. The ceiling painting above the organ depicts the slaughter of the martyrs to the faith, to whom the glory of heaven is opened in the central painting. The ceiling paintings in the choir are dedicated to Paulinus. The sarcophagus altar, other relics, and the burial monument to Paulinus in the crypt are the richly decorated work of Ferdinand Tietz.

Trier City Tour, Stadtrundfahrt Trier, Trèves , Treviri, Tréier,
Trier (französisch Trèves, luxemburgisch Tréier) ist als kreisfreie Stadt im Westen des Landes Rheinland-Pfalz dessen viertgrößte Stadt hinter Mainz, Ludwigshafen am Rhein und Koblenz.
Trier ist Sitz einer Universität, einer Hochschule, der Verwaltung des Landkreises Trier-Saarburg, der Verwaltung der Verbandsgemeinde Trier-Land, der Aufsichts- und Dienstleistungsdirektion (ADD, bis 1999 Bezirksregierung Trier), mehrerer Dienststellen des Landesuntersuchungsamtes (LUA) und einer römisch-katholischen Diözese (Bistum Trier, das älteste nördlich der Alpen).
Die Stadt wurde vor mehr als 2000 Jahren unter dem Namen Augusta Treverorum (ab der zweiten Hälfte des 3. Jahrhunderts Treveris) gegründet und beansprucht den Titel der ältesten Stadt Deutschlands für sich. Trier beruft sich hierbei auf die längste Geschichte als bereits von den Römern anerkannte Stadt, im Gegensatz zu einer Siedlung oder einem Heerlager.
Die Römischen Baudenkmäler in Trier, bestehend aus Amphitheater, Barbarathermen, Kaiserthermen, Konstantinbasilika, Porta Nigra, Römerbrücke, Igeler Säule, Dom sowie die Liebfrauenkirche zählen seit 1986 zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe.
Trier (German pronunciation: [ˈtʀiːɐ̯] ( listen); French: Trèves, IPA: [tʁɛv]; Luxembourgish: Tréier; Italian: Treviri; Latin: Augusta Treverorum; the Latin adjective associated with the city is Treverensis), historically called Treves in English, is a city in Germany on the banks of the Moselle. It may be the oldest city in Germany, founded in or before 16 BC (contested with Worms and Cologne).[2]
Trier lies in a valley between low vine-covered hills of ruddy sandstone in the west of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate, near the border with Luxembourg and within the important Mosel wine region.
The city is the oldest seat of a Christian bishop north of the Alps. In the Middle Ages, the Archbishop of Trier was an important prince of the church, as the Archbishopric of Trier controlled land from the French border to the Rhine. The Archbishop also had great significance as one of the seven electors of the Holy Roman Empire.
With an approximate population of 105,000 Trier is ranked fourth among the state's largest cities; after Mainz, Ludwigshafen, and Koblenz.[3] The nearest large cities in Germany are Saarbrücken, some 80 kilometres (50 miles) southeast, and Koblenz, about 100 km (62 mi) northeast. The closest city to Trier is the capital of Luxembourg, some 50 km (31 mi) to the southwest.
Trier is home to the University of Trier, the administration of the Trier-Saarburg district and the seat of the ADD (Aufsichts- und Dienstleistungsdirektion), which until 1999 was the borough authority of Trier, and the Academy of European Law (ERA). It is one of the five central places of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. Along with Luxembourg, Metz and Saarbrücken, fellow constituent members of the QuattroPole union of cities, it also forms a central place of the greater region encompassing Saar-Lor-Lux (Saarland, Lorraine and Luxembourg), Rhineland-Palatinate, and Wallonia.
Trèves (en italien Treviri, en allemand Trier, en luxembourgeois Tréier) est une ville et un arrondissement d'Allemagne, dans le Land de Rhénanie-Palatinat. La ville est située sur la Moselle. En 2008, la ville comptait 104 640 habitants.

Трир (Trier) Германия. Церковь Святого Гангольфа (St. Gangolf)
Церковь Святого Гангольфа (St. Gangolf)
На протяжении столетий церковь неоднократно перестраивалась, что отразилось на ее нынешнем облике. В начале 14 века были возведены первые четыре этажа западной церковной башни. В 1507 году были пристроены два верхних этажа с галереей и четырьмя маленькими угловыми башенками. Барочный портал сооруженный в 1732 году декорирован лепниной, барельефами и скульптурами.
Особо примечательна высокая квадратная башня со шпилем, украшенная ажурной резьбой и коваными деталями. После реконструкции башня высотой 62 метра стала выше башни Трирского кафедрального собора, поэтому по приказу архиепископа Рихарда фон Грайффенклау южная башня собора Святого Петра была надстроена.
По легенде, рыцарь Гангольф с юношества слыл добродетельным, верным и храбрым. Он прославился своими добрыми поступками, искренностью и набожностью.
У Гангольфа была очень красивая жена. Однажды ему сообщили о её измене с исповедником. Истину святой решил найти через Божий суд. Он просит супругу опустить руку в источник с целебной водой, и кожа на руке блудницы покрылась ожогом.
Гандольф не стал жестоко наказывать жену и её любовника. Поделившись с изменницей половиной имущества, он отправляет обоих в изгнание. Но мстительная женщина решила наказать бывшего супруга, и уговорила своего любовника его убить. Вскоре после смерти Гангольфа на его могиле начали свершаться чудеса.
Святой Мученик особенно почитается в Германии и Франции. Его изображают в рыцарских доспехах. В руках может быть меч, пика, крест и христианское знамение. Считается, что Святой Гангольф помогает справляться в болезнями глаз, кожи и суставов.
