In March 1980, rooms of a manor-house from the 2nd to 3rd century were discovered at the foot of the Silberberg on the occasion of road-construction works. Since May 1993, this extraordinary well-maintained find of a Roman villa has been surrounded by an attractive museum construction protecting the antique building substance. Next to the large-format model, small finds discovered during the excavations are exhibited. There are also special exhibitions.

During the Roman times, auxiliary troops consisting of 500 soldiers were stationed here in the antique Rigomagus. An extensive settlement came into being in front of the Roman camp, which is today’s Remagen. At the Roman Museum behind the town hall, which was established in a former chapel from the 15th/16th century, many meaningful objects from that time are exhibited. The remains of a Roman colonnade are still maintained underneath.
