Römische Wasserleitung Hürth, Archaeological remains of Roman aqueducts in Hürth, Germany.
The archaeological site contains multiple water channels, with one channel positioned above another, demonstrating Roman engineering methods for water transportation.
Built around 30 CE, as evidenced by Roman coins found at the site, these aqueducts preceded the construction of the larger Eifel Aqueduct system.
The water channels gathered water from multiple springs in the Hürth area and transported it to Roman settlements in Cologne through an intricate network.
The site is accessible via tram line 18 from Cologne Central Station to Kiebitzweg, followed by a one-kilometer walk to Vussemweg 9-7.
Four separate water channels converged near Hermülheim Castle before continuing along the present-day Berrenrather Street toward Cologne.
