Romaneum, Educational complex in Neuss, Germany
The Romaneum is a modern building in Neuss that houses a music school, adult education center, and distance learning university under one roof. The spaces were designed around archaeological findings and integrate the historical layers of the site into their layout.
The site functioned as a Roman inn in ancient times and later hosted medieval residential structures before serving as a bus station. The current building was constructed in 2012, replacing these previous uses with a new educational purpose.
The building displays Roman artifacts in its basement that visitors can explore during their time there. These archaeological objects connect the location to the city's ancient past in a tangible way.
The building is located at Brückstraße 1 and is accessible daily for various learning opportunities through its different departments. Keep in mind that individual sections may have varying hours depending on which institution you plan to visit.
The outlines of the ancient Roman inn are marked in the cobblestones of Promenadenplatz, showing visitors where the historical building once stood. This ground-level marking subtly connects modern education with times gone by.
