Located outside the medieval enclosure, they date back to the th century after Jesus Christ, when the city called Augustomagus, that is, the «Augustus market». Under the Mérovingiens, they served as a quarry of stones, from dumping to excavations in the late th century. In Gallo-Roman, its stands could hold up to 12 000 people. They disappeared, their stones being reused in the construction of the city. On the other hand, the vomitoirs, corridors that led to the stands and their floors remained visible.

On peut pas quitter Senlis sans se promener parmi ces arènes gallo-romaines, symbole du passé très important de cette ville historique. Une nouvelle splendeur de cette ville réputée de Picardie

les arènes gallo-romaines sont un plus à visiter dans cette belle ville de Senlis. Là encore on peut laisser son imagination vagabonder et faire un retour dans l'histoire.
On peut, avec beaucoup d'imagination, penser aux combats d'animaux et de gladiateurs qui ont du avoir lieu il y a ....... d'années.
