Bad Münster am Stein - Ebernbu
Not far from the mighty backdrop of the Rotenfels in Bad Münster am Stein-Ebernburg, the sculptors Kubach-Wilmsen built their open-air studio in 1968.

A natural landscape in the Nahe valley opens up to the visitor and observer with stone sculptures as stone piece works of the earth. Nearly 30 sculptures have already found their place in this landscape. The…

Every Roman city, even small ones, had theatres and baths. Historians therefore always assumed that a theatre or amphitheatre also existed at some stage in Mogontiacum.

Excavations revealed a Roman theatre of gigantic size, the largest such building north of the Alps with an auditorium of 116 metres in width. Its stage alone measured 42 metres. The theatre was large enough for around ten thousand people, which…
