Hi-- heading to Germany this summer, and have a 12 year old boy with a strong Roman interest. What sites should we consider visiting? My first thought was the Teutoburg Forest, but I know nothing about the site. I see the Park Kalkriese museum-- is it worth visiting? |

Cologne's Roman Museum is very good – especially the mosaics. Xanten is my favourite, even in the cold and drizzle during January. The reconstructions there are very well done. Somewhere alomg the Rhine is a memorial to Caesar's bridge. |
