Roman theaters hosting a variety of events, including concerts, festivals, workshops and guided tours.

Lugdunum's ancient theater backs onto the Fourvière hill, putting it close to the center of the Roman colony. The theater, also known as "le grand théâtre", is the oldest theater in Roman Gaul and one of the largest, with a capacity of 10,000 spectators. It hosted plays, mainly comedies, accompanied by dances. Both buildings were partially rebuilt in the 20th century, after having been transformed into quarries at the end of Antiquity. Today, the site of the Roman theaters hosts numerous events throughout the year, including concerts, festivals, workshops and guided tours.

J'ai assisté à un spectacle des nuits de Fourvière à l'Odéon, c'est le lieu idéal.

красивые руины и отличный вид на Леон, интересно было походить по старым каменным фундаментам и прикоснуться к древней истории

Magnifique. Ne passez pas à côté du musée qui dispose d'une collection remarquable. Ils expliquent parfaitement l'histoire de Lyon sous l'ère romaine.
