Went in Januari 2024 for a few days. Beautiful place with a lot of history…also went to the Gallo Roman museum there…

You walk through a timeline from the earliest Neanderthal settlements to the Medieval time period. Many interesting Roman artifacts from the region exhibited + a nfc audio guide explaining the history and development of the region. Didn't take long but was interesting. Recommended.

Atuatuca. There's a gallo-roman museum there as well although it's slightly underwhelming in its offerings imho.
