Excellent museum dedicated to the Metz, France area from Gallo-Roman to Renaissance times!…read more Some of my favorite parts of the museums were the Gallo-Roman baths, the Altar of Mithras, and the medieval painted ceiling with weird "animals." The museum is a bit of maze. However it is thoughtfully organized with the understanding that people can easily get lost. There are guides situated throughout the museum to guide you in a forward direction so that you don't get lost. Be patient. If you don't get to see an adjacent room in the moment, just know that you will get there. There is a time and a place. Located right next to the Cathedral Saint Etienne! Very quiet. Not crowded on a Monday. Small but interesting, and not overwhelming at all. Took me about 2 hours and I tend to linger and sit.

A wonderful museum, with art and artifacts of the Metz region, dating from at least 100 years…read morebefore the time before Christ through present day. Everything was well-displayed and labeled, although most was in French only. We used Google to help us with translations. There are Roman baths, full skeletal remains in graves from an ancient cemetery, fine examples of woodworking, pottery, sculptures, glass, Renaissance paintings, architectural pieces, and much more! 5 euros per ticket, and my husband and I spent a full 3 hours here. We did not finish viewing the whole museum, but no worries. The tickets are good for 24 hours, so we can return to see the last of the exhibits tomorrow.

An sich reichhaltiges und anschauliches Museum, das die Geschichte Triers von den ersten…read moreBehausungen in vor-römischer Zeit bis zur Stadt im Spätmittelalter und der Renaissance illustriert. Vor allem die Ausstellungsstücke aus der Zeit der römischen Besatzung sind beeindruckend. Der Eintritt für die Dauerausstellung beträgt €8, was angesichts der Fülle und Qualität der Exponate vollkommen angemessen ist. Im Untergeschoss beherbergt das Museum ein Café/Restaurant. Wer will kann auch die aktuelle Sonderausstellung (zur Zeit: Der Untergang des römischen Reiches) für €6 zusätzlich dazu buchen, doch dafür hatte ich nicht genug Zeit. Weshalb also nur 3 Sterne? Ganz einfach, der Service. Zum Einen ist das Ticketoffice nicht in die großzügige Vorhalle integriert, obwohl genug Platz dafür wäre. Nein, man muss sich zu einer Art Dixiklo Container bewegen. Ärgerlich. Aber noch viel ärgerlicher sind die unverschämten, meist arabischen(!) "Platzwarte" in der Eingangshalle, die einen unverhohlen von Oben herab behandeln und regelrecht aggressiv sind. Einfach nur frech, unverschämt! Diese sollte man sofort feuern!!! Das hat meine Stimmung schon vor dem eigentlichen Besuch empfindlich getrübt.

The audioguides in English were very helpful with the major exhibitions and were indispensable, actually; get them and your tickets in the gift shop. Plenty of statuary, artifacts, friezes, mosaics, on and on. There is a good display of ancient Roman coinage that was interesting. We missed the grave monuments display as entrance to that is timed. On the third floor there is a great diorama of ancient Roman Trier that gives one a thorough visual layout of the ancient city in miniature. And no museum is complete without a mummy--there is a tiny one, but it counts. One star just for the mummy. The museum is worth every penny. The Bistro: there is a bistro on the ground floor in the back that has a sweeping view over a pool toward the Basilica. They serve some phenomenal food there, and the employees were very encouraging when they saw me eying the marvelous dessert display case. We had a gorgonzola-champignon soup that was excellent, had excellent bread, and a burrito. They have outstanding looking torts in that display case, but, alas, we were too full! Our waitress was very helpful in translating the menu and helping us make choices. You kind of have to wave them down to get your check and pay, but this is true at almost every place we ate at in Germany--they give you a lot of privacy and time to eat.

A must see if your in the area. Great historical museum and peaceful. You can easily fill your…read moreday with this museum through educational, hands on and just enjoyment. The kids (hey adults too) will enjoy the animals and the feeling of just going back in time. They do a great job of walking you through the different era's. The exhibits are also diverse and interesting. Some of the buildings are exceptional and you will be wow'd Oh and they have English & Dutch translations which we found very helpful. Great place for an individual, group, kids, or the whole family. Bring your walking shoes! Great price too. Just go and enjoy!
