This is a Roman ruin located on the outskirts of Trier, a city on the Moselle River in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate in western Germany. It is about 1.5 km from Trier Central Station, about a 20-minute walk, and is near the palace park where the Electoral Palace and the Rheinland Museum are located. Trier originated as a garrison and logistics base for the Roman legions, and in the 3rd and 4th centuries it developed into one of the largest cities in the Roman Empire, and became one of the four capitals during the transition to the Tetrarchy. In the early 4th century, Constantine I, who officially recognized Christianity as the state religion of Rome, settled here. As a result, Roman ruins have been passed down to the present day. ◇One of these, the Kaiserthermen (Imperial Baths), is, as its name suggests, the remains of a large bath built around that time. The facility had not only hot and cold baths, but also saunas, massages, and sports facilities, and was more like a modern-day kurhaus or health center than a bathhouse. Currently, in addition to parts of the buildings, traces of water pipes, basements, and underfloor heating remain. Nearby are the remains of the Barbara Thermen baths (only the foundations and underground passages remain), which date back about 200 years, a Roman bridge, an amphitheater, and other ruins. Along with St. Peter's Basilica and the Basilica of Our Lady, it is registered as a World Heritage Site. Source: Kodansha World Tourist Attractions Encyclopedia Information |
ドイツ西部のラインラントプファルツ州にあるモーゼル河畔の都市トリーア(Trier)の郊外に位置する、ローマ帝国時代の遺跡。トリーア中央駅から約1.5km、徒歩20分ほど、選帝侯宮殿やライン州立博物館がある宮殿公園のそばにある。トリーアはローマの軍団の駐屯地・兵站(へいたん)地を起源とする町で、3~4世紀にはローマ帝国有数の大都市に発展し、四分治制(テトラルキア)移行は4つの首都のうちの一つとなった。4世紀初めには、キリスト教をローマ国教として公認したコンスタンティヌス1世がここに居を定めた。こうしたことから、ローマ時代の遺跡が今日に伝わっている。◇そのうちの一つのカイザーテルメン(皇帝浴場)は、その名称どおり、このころにつくられた大浴場の跡である。温水浴室や冷水浴室だけでなくサウナやマッサージやスポーツ施設までそろった施設で、浴場というよりは、むしろ今日のクアハウスや健康センターに近いものだった。現在、建物の一部のほか、水道管や地下室や床暖房の設備跡が残っている。近くには年代が200年ほど古いバルバラテルメンという浴場遺跡(基礎や地下道しか残っていない)やローマの橋、円形劇場などの遺跡もある。聖ペテロ大聖堂、聖母聖堂などとともに、世界遺産に登録されている。
