Archaeology handicrafts and science and technology sites to visit Germany

A few kilometres from Perl, between Borg and Oberleuken, was discovered over 100 years ago in the footsteps of a Roman city by Professor Johann Scheider. The first excavations were organized, thus reviving a former Roman villa. And not least since it proved to be one of the most important of the Saarland Moselle. As long as the techniques of excavation were improved, several pieces were revealed: the baths, the tavern, the master house with its museum furnishings, the interior courtyard, the farm and farm wing, the portal and the kitchen. Today, excavations do not stop and span 7,5 hectares.

Discover Freiburg's Wasserschlössle. Perched above the Wiehre district in the Sternwald, this water tower, hidden since 1895, offers an enchanting view of eastern Freiburg. Like the legendary Bächle, the water flows naturally to the home. Inspired by the seal of 1245, the Wasserschlössle is a feat of engineering. Sip fresh water at the fountain, before enjoying spectacular views from the summit. It's well worth the climb! An experience that transcends traditional fairy tales.

Explore the mystery of the Dreisamschaukel, a swing suspended between Schwabentorbrücke and Kaiserbrücke. Its origin is as bewitching as the experience of swinging your feet over the undulating Dreisam. Hanging mysteriously on the Mariensteg, this swing requires wet feet and a dose of balance on slippery stones. Who came up with the idea remains a mystery, but the Dreisamschaukel is recognized as the city's most beautiful swing.
