Let me take you on a walk through my home-town Trier today.
I am sure that if you follow this route on Easter Sunday or Monday it will be even lovelier since nature will be greener and the sun will shine on you.
Let us start with what I call the “public” city.
The public city
The “Porta Nigra”, English the Black Gate, is the landmark of Trier.
“Dreikoenigshaus”, please notice the door on the first floor
The “Steipe” and the red House, where the guilds used to congregate
The fountain of St Peter, the city patron
The market cross
The main market square
The cathedral or “Dom”
The “Domstein”, a column with a folk story attached to it
The Roman basilica of Emperor Constantine
Here I will end the public walk through the city and take you to some more “private” places, places I am attached to.
My private Trier
The “Maerklin-shop-Theisen” in Metzelstrasse, where we spent zillions of hours looking at the various miniature toys
Chinese restaurant, one of many catering to the needs of the more than 30,000 tourists from China visiting the birthplace of Karl Marx
Renovated patrician house in Nagelstrasse, formerly owned by friends of ours, the Fey family, where we spent many hours as little kids
My old watering whole: “Die Glocke”, a rather traditional tavern which attracted the young when I was young
Of course there is much more to see than that above. I could have uploaded many more pictures of my beautiful home town. Why don’t you come and visit?
This is actually a must-do for any Riesling lover. There are so many wine bars, and cellar doors to explore in Trier that you might need some time.
In the meantime please explore the virtual map which I like quite a bit.

Hello, Trier!
Frohe Ostern! Familie Adam

My wife and I can’t wait to tour the Mosel region. No one does riesling quite the same. I love your pictures, especially of the town square.
I just visited our hometown in March/April and saw all the places you show in your blog again. It is such a beautiful place. But I think I heard that the restaurant ‘Die Glocke’ closed recently. I remember this place also very well. Loving your blog. Greetings to Bangkok. Doris
The pictures are very nice, but where are the trees? Michael
A person specifically lend a hand in making seriously articles I may condition. Option first time My spouse and i been to your site web page and so significantly? My spouse and i amazed with all the investigation you have made to build this particular post extraordinary. Excellent procedure!
I drop a leave a response whenever I appreciate a article on a website or if I have something to add to the conversation.
It is a result of the fire communicated in the article I

I was excited enough to leave a thought 😛 I actually do have some questions for you if you
tend not to mind. Could it be just me or do some
of the responses look like they are left by brain dead people?
😛 And, if you are posting at additional places, I would like to follow you.
Could you list every one of all your communal
sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or
linkedin profile?
My family members always say that I am killing my time here
at net, however I know I am getting knowledge daily by reading thes pleasant
articles or reviews.
An outstanding share! I’ve just forwarded this onto a colleague who has been conducting a little research on this.
And he in fact bought me lunch simply because I found it
for him… lol. So let me reword this…. Thanks for the
meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending some time to talk about this subject here on your internet site.
