We provide, free of charge, an exhibit of the living room of a Roman centurion who lived at Chester (Dewa Victrix) which it is based on an actual archaeological find at Chester. You will find a Roman character on duty here most days, along with some of the very latest information about excavations and finds of the Roman period in Chester.

You can also get information on guided tours from knowledgeable historical characters.
