Very nice museum, i was really impressed by the huge collection of artifacts. Specially the Roman Tombs are insane. You can visit at least two to three hours here.. Also, they have a multimedia show at 12, extra cost, around these Roman tombs. So why 4 stars and not 5? Well, German signs all over the place, hardly anything in other language. You can get a free audio tour though. Another thing, the multimedia show, we took the Dutch language guide, but the sound in German was so loud, you could here it through the headphone. Also context about what you see is erm... Nowhere, honestly i had no idea what this show was about.... So yes, fantastic museum, could be better if they think more about other languages....

When you would like to visit a another demension, please visit this museum. Lovely roman period related items, statues and thing they had to make their lives better. Really recommand it. You also have faults to store your loaded bags as well. They have little phones to listen to the history of each object. You can spend 1-2 hours here. Enjoy!

Good museum and lots of historical information about this city of Trier. We enjoyed visiting the place as a tourist with our family and learned a lot. Highly recommended place for families.

If you truly want to understand the rich history of Trier and the surrounding regions, this museum is a must-visit.
The collection is big and diverse and the different objects and artefacts are beautifully displayed with detailed descriptions. There is also an audio guide, included in the ticket price.
When visiting Trier I would highly recommend first visiting the museum and afterwards exploring the different Roman historical sites throughout the city.
They offer a great value combi ticket that allows entry to the major historical landmarks

Really impressive and extensive collection covering the history of Trier and its surroundings. Starting in prehistoric times and ending with the phrase "after which Trier became an insignificant border town in the Moselle area." The history of Trier is a very interesting one which is obviously all due to its Roman past. As late capital of the western roman empire and overall very rich town in these times many things have been well preserved and the museum does a good job of giving an impression of the city back then. There's lots of information well laid out, however it is mostly in German. If you do not speak German I definitely recommend the free audio guide available also in french English and Dutch.

As someone who loves ancient history, I’d give this 6 stars if I could. Absolutely spectacular statuary, mosaics and the fantastic gold hoard. Even better than the museum in Split, which is saying something.

A museum that covers the history of Trier and the surrounding area from the Stone Age to the French Revolution.
There is limited information given in English but a free audio guide was provided. We found the layout a bit confusing but I think we managed to see most rooms in the correct sequence.
The Roman section is the star of the show for me, much like Trier in general. More details about the exhibits on the audio guide would be good.

A museum showing the history of the city of Trier and the surrounding lands.
The museum starts with the history of the first inhabitants of these lands, passing from the Stone Age through to the Celtic tribes who were here and then to the Roman occupation and into the medieval period. As befits the oldest city in Germany, there is a great deal to see here. Do note that the descriptions of the artefacts are done in German, so if you read no German, it may be best to purchase an audio guide.
