description: "Between small cafés in the courtyard near the cathedral, you will find the remains of a Roman portico, reminiscent of the former baths and temple district. The simple fragments stand quietly in the modern cityscape and give you an idea of how much Aachen was shaped by thermal springs many centuries ago. If you have a little time to spare, the place exudes a quiet dignity. The idea that people from ancient times once lingered here lends the square a special depth and connects Roman heritage with today's lively everyday life."

Roman Portico Aachen – quiet columns of an ancient healing district

 Between small cafés in the courtyard near the cathedral, you will find the remains of a Roman portico, reminiscent of the former baths and temple district. The simple fragments stand quietly in the modern cityscape and give you an idea of how much Aachen was shaped by thermal springs many centuries ago. If you have a little time to spare, the place exudes a quiet dignity. The idea that people from ancient times once lingered here lends the square a special depth and connects Roman heritage with today's lively everyday life.
