Heerlen attractions

Thermenmuseum opened in 1977, after an archaeological excavation uncovered what is now the best preserved Roman bathhouse in the Netherlands. The museum allows visitors to wander raised bridges and get an exceptional view of the 2000-year-old site. There are also exhibitions of fascinating Roman artifacts, tools and trinkets, as well as a dazzling 3D light show depicting what the baths would have looked like in their day.
