Roman Watchtowers at Park Matilo

Highlight • Historical Site

If you want to get very close to the Roman history of Leiden, you should definitely visit Archaeological Park Matilo. The park is named after the castellum that served as a defensive fortress here about 2000 years ago. The archaeological remains of this army camp, but also those of a medieval monastery are still hidden in the soil. Above ground, the municipality of Leiden has made the history of this area visible with reconstructions of watchtowers and children's playground equipment in Roman style.

If it is up to the municipality of Leiden, Archaeological Park Matilo will grow into an open stage where art, history and culture meet. In Park Matilo, various parties organize activities for young and old. There is even a Roman archery association (Sagittatus) active!

Caesar 🚴‍♂️

April 20, 2025, 🇳🇱 Leiden und Polderland

First, I cycled around Leiden and then through the beautiful, historic city center. In the city center, I took a break by the water and fortified myself with apple pie and coffee. I watched the hustle and bustle of the boats and canoes on the water. Then I headed into the hinterland of Rijnland. There were many idyllic windmills along the way. Unfortunately, part of my planned route was closed, so I had to take a small detour. The detour was worth it, though, because it took me past a farm serving delicious softijs (sweet jam). The farm was very open, and I had the opportunity to look around. The route then continued along lakes, canals, and ditches back to the starting point. Weather: ☀️ 🌡️ 17
