About the Exhibition: Mens op de grens
For centuries people have met where Nijmegen now lies, from Roman soldiers to powerful emperors and wealthy traders. A hill offers a view and a river forms a natural border, so different times, cultures and ideas meet here.
Visitors follow the first people who travelled long distances to arrive, soldiers guarding the northern border of the Roman Empire, and the rise of a medieval hub of trade, politics, religion and art.
