Author: Via Belgica

In this episode we search in Valkenburg for the location where once an old Roman watchtower stood, and we go underground to the Roman Catacombs. “Those who write, remain!” — the Romans already understood that very well. How, with what, and why they wrote, is explained in detail by our Roman expert Jos Cremers. We also cook and taste Roman food again, this time with a Roman dish by Otto Nijenhuis, chef of Château St. Gerlach: lamb ragout with pearl barley.
