Day 7 Ahrweiler

A quieter day today.  We visited the Roman Villa at Ahrweiler. This is an a group of Roman houses found by accident when road widening in Ahrweiler was being undertaken in 1980. The whole excavation is housed in a building and walkways permit the visitor to see the work and research that is being undertaken.  Some fine mosaic and other artefacts are on display. This was a good find and completely unplanned.
Late lunch on the way back at a restaurant ‘Der bunte Kuh.’ Excellent schnitzel and a little local wine.
