Tawern Roman Temple
Description
The Roman Temple Tawern (German: Römischer Tempelbezirk Tawern) is a reconstructed Gallo-Roman sanctuary in Tawern near Trier. The original sanctuary was built in the 1st century AD above a major road leading from Divodurum Mediomatricorum (modern-day Metz) to Augusta Treverorum (modern-day Trier) and was used until the end of the 4th century AD.
The sanctuary was excavated in 1986-88 and seven buildings of various periods and of different sizes and plans were found within the complex. The temple district and a large building were partially reconstructed on the original foundations.
