Tongeren Belgium




-

Tongeren is the oldest city in Belgium and is just filled with archaeological sites.
-
It also has one of the nicest Roman museums anywhere, and is one of the few to contain a dodecahedron.

-

Well preserved portions of the middle age city wall from the 1200's still exist as do long portions of the Roman wall outside of that from the 2nd century.

-

The Moeren Gate is a beautiful entrance to the city through the middle age city wall.
