The Pacelliufer is one after Eugenio Pacelli, the later Pope Pius XII. , named street in Trier . It runs along the Moselle between the southern outskirts, where the B 268 joins the B 51 , and Hohenzollernstrasse. The section of the road from the outskirts to the Konrad-Adenauer-Brücke is part of the B 51, from the bridge it is part of the B 49 . The road has four lanes.

The street got its name in 1957 and was previously called Matthiasufer after the Trier district of the same name. The renaming of the street is reminiscent of a visit by the Apostolic Nuncio Pacelli in 1927. From 1934 to 1945 the street was called Horst-Wessel-Ufer , named after Horst Wessel .

On the Pacelliufer are the backs of various (listed) buildings on the adjacent streets, including Medardstraße . In the southern area, the distance between Pacelliufer and Medardstrasse is so narrow that there is only one piece of land in between. The Trier Waterways and Shipping Office and a petrol station are also located on the street .

The Olewiger Bach canalized in this area flows into the Pacelliufer . A 1.20 m wide canal of the city drainage runs parallel.

Roman finds

The oldest finds of early Roman settlements in Trier were made on the banks of the Pacelli. There was the Roman pottery quarter of Trier, after which the pottery street was named. In 1983, 14 pottery kilns from Roman times were discovered during museum excavations in the vicinity of the Pacelli bank  . It is believed that the pottery district was one of the largest and most important industrial areas in the ancient world. Mainly drinking utensils were produced, including the Trier Spruchbecher and Terra Sigillata . The main phase of the Trier pottery industry was between the first and fourth centuries AD. The bricks from Pacelliufer were even installed in the far away Cologne-Deutz .
