A 140-kilometre interpretive trail along Roman roads in the Rhineland brings the history of the Agrippa Road and the Via Belgica back to life as a journey through time.
A 140-kilometre-long signage and information system is being developed for a cycle and hiking route on and along the historic Roman roads in the Rhineland. The system of information elements, route guidance, resting places and viewing platforms makes the 2,000-year history of the former Agrippastraße and Via Belgica and their historical significance for the region experienceable. In this way, the landscape and the people get back a piece of their centuries-old history and the uniqueness and identity associated with it. From a technical point of view, the system is also unique: Massive corten steel, which conserves itself through its rust layer when untreated, provides the necessary durability in combination with exposed concrete surfaces and a weatherproof and vandalism-proof coating.
