Lyon Fourvière, Site Gallo-Romain

You are in the Fourvière Archaeological Park (open from 7am to 7pm). Thanks to the guidance of Philippe Fabia and Camille Germain de Montauzan, the existence of a large theatre near the Odeon was revealed. Year after year the excavations have revealed an archaeological park of three hectares including the theater, the Odeon, a large public building – considered as a sanctuary of Cybele – several road sections and a set of shops behind the Odeon. The Museum of the Gallo-Roman civilisation was inaugurated in 1975. Start by visiting the Odeon which is a slightly above you when you take the first alley on your left.
