Worth the visit—our modern day stadiums are based on this design! Another cool Roman site that is actively being studied. Just like the Porta Nigra and Kaiserthermen, this site also cost 4 or 5 Euro. The site has three levels, only the arena floor is ADA accessible. At the arena floor are several rooms for entrance to the seating and rooms for holding stuff then and now. From here you can see the seating circling around the arena and you can go up into the stands on one side—it is steep stairs with no protection so mind your step for sure. From the arena floor you can get under the arena to see the workings of where they kept animals and combatants or brought up equipment, that was very interesting (bring a flashlight). The amphitheater is across the busy street from the Kaiserthermen, not even a full kilometer walk. There is a tunnel that takes you under the street safely and or you can take a pretty bike path.

The Amphitheater is an old piece of the Roman kingdom. It’s very exciting to visit and spend some time there. We saw the place were the old Romans had fights with animals or with other humans. We went down the fight stage to the underground place where there was secrets one day. Also, some of the weapons and clothes can be seen there. And of course you can enjoy the weather sorting on the green grass and have some nice time with family or friends. And at the end of the day you’ll come back home with some worthy photos. This Amphitheater is one of the most important monuments in Trier and a must see when you visit the city. Have a nice day!

I personally really enjoyed coming here as I am a fan of historical places and roman architecture. There are signs all over which have some small pieces of information in German, French and in English. There is also an informative video but I believe that is only in German language. It is a self guided walking experience. There are a lot of places to climb up and now so unfortunately not really wheelchair accessible. The ticket booth is at the entrance and it was a good price . (I think it was around €4.00 per person). There are also public bathrooms but unfortunately no kiosk for snacks or drinks.

We visited on a Friday in mid-April. Allow 90 minutes or so to have a relaxed walk around and learn about one of the largest, more or less preserved colusseums outside of Rome. There is a guided tour available via your phone (several languages are available). Parking is limited (room for about 20-25) but we had no problem finding a space. There are toilets. It is short walk into town. The information boards are in German and English. The underground part is excellent. Several types of tickets are available depending on how long you are staying in Trier and what you want to see.

Fantastic. You get to go EVERYWHERE. Up, down, in, under, around... the only place blocked off was due to a danger of the wall collapsing. Try every entrance and every door! Take the western exit to go to the outside and around the stadium into it from another entrance. Parking is free for this site only. Steep hike up on the vineyard field but it is beautiful. WORTH EVERY PENNY. Bathroom is clean (soap dispenser works, you just have to pull the small tab toward you). Attendant is friendly and knowledgeable enough of English to help us. Checked vaccinated status which is nice.

Definitely see this if visiting Trier. A must!! They closed 45 min early we noticed which pissed off a bunch of tourists last Saturday. No reason given. They were left out looking in, so I suggest at least getting there an hour before closing. Won't take you long to go thru but the pics are cool and you get to walk in the basement floor where gladiators once stood. Incredible!!! Buy tickets at the office. Might have been cash only can't remember. Worth the price. No vending or food there. Bathrooms tho. Crappy small parking lot. So most likely street.
