Juliacum, Roman archaeological site in Jülich, Germany
The excavated foundations and structural elements of Juliacum reveal a Roman settlement that operated as an administrative center in Germania Inferior during the first century.
Established along the Rur valley trade route, Juliacum functioned as a strategic Roman outpost, controlling commercial activities and maintaining authority over local Germanic tribes.
Archaeological discoveries at Juliacum include pottery, coins, and household items that demonstrate the integration of Roman customs into the daily life of Germania Inferior.
The Infopavillon Museum near the archaeological site presents original artifacts, detailed exhibits, and comprehensive information about the Roman settlement's development.
The site preserves architectural elements that showcase the transition from Roman administrative center to medieval town, leading to the establishment of the Duchy of Jülich.
