Following the excursion to the ancient fortifications in Boppard am Rhein, we now turn to the Roman city wall of our town. The city fortifications of CCAA are almost 2000 years old. There are preserved sections visible in the urban area, but also sections hidden beneath today's buildings.
Prof. Dr. Alfred Schäfer has long been engaged with this mighty structure, and is committed not only professionally but also on the board of the Förderverein Römische Stadtmauer, for the preservation of this significant monument. On 20 November 2026 he will lead us along the northern Roman fortification from the Nordtor to the Römerturm, and will be able to tell us much about its history, construction, condition and preservation.
