Roman Villa Nennig — Attraction in Perl

Conclusion: I recommend to visit.

It is rather a cozy size of the ruins of Roman house with an exhibition building for the mosaic floor.

I was surprised when I encountered the floor, bigger than I thought, and also really well-reserved.

It looked already interesting just watching the details. But there was a nice gentleman who came to us(family visiting) and told the stories the mosaic floor had, we were hooked. He had very detailed knowledge about the heritage. I could not understand German well, so He explained in English mixing with German, even though, It made us being fascinated to it. I guess if you could understand German, lucky you, you would get more details. In the end, I kinda felt like I got to know the Romans in the picture and also who lived on the floor.

There is a small fee(for the protection of the heritage, I guess), and public parking is available just in front of the gate. We visited on a sunny spring day, and we chilled out under the cherry tree next to Roman...

The Villa was discovered in 1852 by a peasant working on his land. The mosaic was restored in 1960 – it was dated then to the 3rd century AD. The ruins of the villa are noted for their exceptional mosaics, which have survived in remarkably good condition. They are considered as one of the most important of its kind north of Alps and they include vivid depictions of hunting and of gladiators fighting....

Loved the mosaic, gloriously large and filled with story panels surrounded by interwoven strands and motif panels. Under cover apart from the walled outline of the once sumptuous villa, partly built over by the surrounding village. Fronted by a rather stern looking reception guy! Well worth a visit. Dont miss the Borg villa restoration 4 miles away up...
