The Historic Vaulted Cellars of the former Deutz Abbey include sections of the Roman fortress wall of Deutz, which once secured the boundaries of the military camp Divitia. This camp served as a strategic bridgehead and show of power against the enemies of Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium, ancient Cologne. The cellars are part of the UNESCO World Heritage and the Lower Germanic Limes.
