The Roman Limes between the Rhine and Danube has now been a UNESCO World Heritage Site for 20 years. But what does that actually mean? And what does Wiesbaden have to do with it? Together we will not only try to answer these questions, but also take a look at the history and development of this Roman border. What was life like for soldiers at the Limes and how did they get on with the neighboring Germanic tribes? All curious minds are welcome!
