Villa urbana of Longuich

The Villa Urbana extends over 110 meters in length and 28 meters in width, featuring residential quarters with an enclosed peristyle and bathing facilities.

Constructed at the end of the second century CE, this Roman residence stood along the important road connecting the cities of Augusta Treverorum and Mogontiacum.

The excavated portions of the villa reveal intricate architectural elements including marble panels, glass mosaics, and an advanced heating system for the bathing complex.

The reconstructed left wing of the villa remains open to visitors, presenting the original bath facilities with their cold, warm, and hot chambers.

Archaeological work in 1984 uncovered a stone sarcophagus from the fourth century containing the remains of a young girl with burial artifacts.
