The Töpferstraße is a street in Trier in the Trier-Süd district . It runs between Euchariusstrasse and Pacelliufer . The street is named after the Roman pottery quarter that was located between Pacelliufer and Lintzstraße. It used to be called Ziegelstrasse .

In 1983, 14 pottery kilns from Roman times were discovered during museum excavations on Pacelliufer. It is believed that there was one of the greatest industrial areas in ancient times. Mainly drinking dishes 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.

In the street you can also find one of the cultural monuments of the city of Trier: a late historical two-storey house built in 1909 by the Faber brothers. Porta Media , one of Augusta Treverorum's city ​​gates , stood at the point of contact with Saarstrasse . Today, however, nothing can be seen of Porta Media.
