City Museum Woerden | World Heritage Lower German Limes - Woerden
A World Heritage Site since 2021, the Lower Germanic Limes was the border of the Roman Empire in the Netherlands and Germany two thousand years ago. The Romans were in our country for some 450 years and left all kinds of traces. Not only did this lay the foundations for our infrastructure and alphabet, lots of archaeological treasures were found along the limes that can be admired in our museums. Here you will find everything from everyday objects such as Roman coins and tools, to larger traces such as remains of forts, watchtowers and even Roman ships.
Woerden's City Museum is housed in the old city hall. The museum houses Roman finds from the area, which you can see with your own eyes here. Find out all about Roman times on a tour of the museum.
