The city was founded more than 2,000 years ago under the name Augusta Treverorum (from the second half of the 3rd century Treveris) and claims the title of the oldest city in Germany. Trier refers to its longest history as a city already recognized by the Romans, as opposed to a settlement or an army camp.
The Roman monuments in Trier have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986. These include the amphitheater, Barbarathermen, Kaiserthermen, Constantine Basilica, Porta Nigra, Roman Bridge and the Igeler Column in Igel. Trier's World Heritage Site also includes the essentially Romanesque cathedral and the early Gothic Church of Our Lady. In addition, there are cultural monuments in Trier from almost all eras from early history to the 21st century.
Trier is the seat of the University of Trier and the Trier University of Applied Sciences, the administration of the Trier-Saarburg district, the administration of the Trier-Land municipality, the Supervision and Services Directorate (ADD, Trier district government until 1999), several departments of the State Investigation Office (LUA), one Office of the State Office for Social Affairs, Youth and Care of Rhineland-Palatinate and a Roman Catholic diocese (Diocese of Trier, the oldest north of the Alps) and the Protestant church district of Trier.
