Beschreibung
The Roman conquest over 2,000 years ago is an important part of Chur's settlement history. The findings from this period are presented in the protective structures.
The protective structures above the archaeological finds from the Roman period were constructed in 1986 according to plans by the Graubünden architect Peter Zumthor. They serve as protective covers for the archaeological finds as well as for a museum and architectural jewel. The filigree-like lamellar construction is suggestive of the original dimensions of the Roman buildings.
