An absolutely fantastic #Roman barge, "De Meern 1", lenght 25m. It was wrecked in a winding tributary of the Rhine around the year 190 AD, possibly due to navigational error. Much of the barge's interior and the captain's personal belongings were preserved in the cabin, including a collection of tools. It allows an extraordinary glimpse into life aboard a vessel.
On display at Castellum Hoge Woerd, The Netherlands

1. A photo of a well-preserved wooden barge displayed inside a building. The barge is long and narrow, with wooden benches running along its length. It appears weathered. There are some people watching the barge, giving a sense of scale to the barge.
