Overview
Discover the most beautiful monuments of the capital of Gaul in its heyday: Roman theatre and odeon. Imagine everyday Gallo-Roman life as you discover remains infused into the city.
Check-out from the Fourvière Basilica, discover the location of the forum, the nerve centre of the city. Then we will immerse you in Gallo-Roman entertainment by discovering the magnificent theater, the odeon and the streets full of life near them.
During a walk on the heights offering a splendid view of the city, daily life is revealed by the remains scattered along the streets: aqueducts, thermal baths and fountain tell you more about the importance of water while the mausoleums arranged by the roads and the remains of the church Saint-Just built since the 5th century allow us to evoke the Roman religion and the relationship to death.
The tour ends at the Minimes funicular - Roman Theatre.
