Traces of the Roman presence are still visible everywhere in Tongeren, together they form the largest contiguous archaeological complex in the Netherlands.

The combination with the square hooves and hills creates an exceptional landscape. SIGNAGE The different crossroads are numbered and clearly visible on blue rectangular panels.
