Museumkelder Derlon: Roman remains beneath a hotel

Museumkelder Derlon in Maastricht displays archaeological remains beneath Hotel Derlon. The visit offers an underground view of various building elements and finds, with a separate public opening on Sundays.

Learning to read a layer

The remains do not necessarily all belong to the same moment. Use the explanations to distinguish the different parts and periods before you view them as a whole.

A pedestal and a well

The base of a Jupiter column and a well are mentioned in the description of what is on offer. Such elements can be easier to understand when the guide explains what is visible and what follows from interpretation.

A hotel as the way in

The museum space lies within a hotel setting. Outside the published public opening, access may depend on other uses; hotel opening is therefore not a fixed museum schedule.

Before you go

Check the exact access arrangements and ask about stairs and accessibility. Different packages may have other conditions than the free Sunday opening; arrange group visits separately.
