圆形露天剧场

The Amphitheater is a ways from the Roman Baths or the Basillica. They charge three Euros to enter. Once inside there is not much to see. Where the seats are supposed to be are filled with glass. you can go under the theater to see the foundation and there is water running through out. There are some rooms that look like Jail cells but other than that, I did not see anything that was special. There are clean bathrooms on the premises.

this was a trip to walk in the foot steps of a american airforce veteran who had shared his time in germany with me in many stories and he could not make it back so i went to check it out and share pictures and memories with him on my return.. he used to come to this amphitheater in the 60s and study with a guru there who taught service men and women how to forget the war for a while so to him this was a special place.. but it also holds the memories of many others who preformed here way back in time... cool place to see a small peice of roman history..

The chap at the entrance wasn't overly enthusiastic! but I enjoyed wandering around. My favourite part was going beneath the ground to see the area below, which was interesting. If it hadn't been a Roman remain I don't think I would have rated it so high! But I am glad I visited.

In comparison with the Colosseum in Rome and the amphithetre in Side, Turkey, this is 'small fry' ! Nevertheless, it is old and is an historic site in Trier.

Impressive monument which shows all the nice building capacities of the ancient roman society within the hillsides surrounding :Trier

When you are in Trier this amphitheater is one of the places to visit to visualise the Roman culture which existed on these grounds more than 2000 years ago.

Interesting visit and well kept entrance fee was €3 per adult so not too much we were given a paper guide in English which was helpful

I loved the amphitheater. I could just imagine the gladiator fights. The tour of the basement and the rooms is impressive too. I wish it was a guided tour though that would have been even better.

Having been to multiple amphitheaters, from Greece, to Bulgaria, to Italy, I can say this is an excellent one with many key aspects including being complete, viewable, and with an intact, explorable underground. My adult daughter had not seen one and was taken by all of this one. There are also some side attractions like a gladiator exercising in the arena with a sword and a rope net (which he also taught some children to throw; he also gives guided tours.) A small map and guide is included in entry fee, in several language, including English.Cost: 3 Euros per adult and also available a part of the antiquity cards, which combine museum entrance with sights entrance, for reduced price. At the top of the left side of the arena, as you enter from the main gate, there is a map of Roman Trier and a taped, short recording explaining it, for 1 Euro.

This is a well maintained, well preserved site. Its scale is the first thing that strikes you as you walk in. You can get beneath the arena to see the tunnels and cells below. There isn't a great deal of information around so you need to use your imagination a bit, but it is definitely worth the couple of Euros to get in. There are loos, but they are rather...rustic.

This is a well preserved Roman site and entry is cheap. It is worth a visit along with the other surrounding Roman buildings when passing Trier

I had look round a few years and I went again last week it was very interesting. It is a bit difficult to imagine how things were when the Romans were here

No one will visit this attraction without feeling the total dispair of the poor creatures road to death in order to amuse the audience. The lack of feeling for others must have been evident - ore else no one could have watched these fights. It is nice to know that music was plaid in concerts, actors performed and it at times was anything but the act og killing.We saw accidently the gladiator training his stunts i the arena. He, at least, thought he was impressive.The man selling tickets was to us the most pleasant young man, smiling, talking and very interested in informing us what to se where. Thumbs up for him - he was so nice.

Interesting area and not real crowded. We ventured down the stairs to the underground area which I found to be more interesting and much cooler. Only a few Euro to get in. Worth the stop while in the area.

On a baking hot day, with few visitors around, to stand in silence the centre of the arena, with a blindingly bright sun glaring down and bright white sand underfoot, the weight of centuries and the sense of drama and suppressed fear was genuinely palpable. It was not difficult to imagine standing here nearly 2,000 years ago with the deafening noise of up to 20,000 baying citizens thirsting for the sight of mortal combat, and awaiting whatever opponents might emerge from one of the gated chambers around the perimeter of the arena. There are more emotions to be felt in the dank darkness of the cells, passages and especially the huge underground chamber beneath the arena. I've never visited Italy but this surpassed the Amphitheatre in Saintes for me.
