DomUnder

Getting around: DomUnder is accessed from the Domplein in central Utrecht, right next to the Dom Tower.
Hours: Guided tours run on scheduled times through the day, generally within standard hours; booking ahead is recommended since tour group sizes are limited.

DomUnder is an underground archaeological experience beneath Utrecht's Domplein, using guided tours with projections and augmented elements to reveal Roman-era ruins and medieval remains layered beneath the modern square, tracing the city's history back roughly 2,000 years to its origins as a Roman fort. It's a more immersive, multimedia-driven approach to archaeology than a typical static museum display, built directly around the actual excavated remains rather than relocated artifacts.

It pairs naturally with a Dom Tower and Dom Church visit given the shared location, and offers a genuinely different angle on Utrecht's history — literally showing what lies beneath the city's most central square.
