Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The archaeological site at the foot of the “Sonnebierg” in Helmsange was explored between the years of 1990 and 1994. The Villa was constructed at the end of the 1st century. It was 100 meters long and 50 meters large, which makes it one of the biggest in the area. It was an elegant construction with porticoes and a decorated façade. The Villa suffered from raids of Germanic tribes at the end of the 3rd century and was never rebuilt in its former splendor, but some of its rooms were still used at the beginning of the 4th century. Villa’s internal and outer walls were restored and reinforced so that the structure can be easily seen. Information boards provide detailed information about the Villa and its geographical context. The nearby underground gallo-roman aqueduct called Raschpëtzer Qanat represents another “must see” Roman place in the area.
