The gallo-roman villa of Schieren was first explored during the widening works of the B7 road in 2013-2018 and initial finds (including ell preserved polychrome frescoes) confirmed its interest for archaeologists. The current excavations are focused on the main residential building of 4.000 m2. Besides this main construction, at least a dozen of auxiliary buildings were located. The surface occupied by the villa buildings and its court is 190 m to 415m. According to press reports, it is likely to make this villa accessible for visits by 2023. The villa can’t be visited today as active archaeological excavations are being conducted on the site.
