The ruins of the Palace Gallien are among the ancient vestiges of the city of Bordeaux. In Roman times, this building, built by the Emperor Gallien in the third century, served as an amphitheatre for the games. At the time, the wooden stands hosted 20 000 spectators attending chars and gladiators races. To learn more about this building and its former occupants, do not hesitate to make one of the guided tours in the summer or in the evening. The Gallien Palace, a historic monument, has treasures. Since the th century, it has been the subject of archaeological excavations!

Rare vestige antique de Bordeaux
Bordeaux a littéralement ravagé son patrimoine antique. Nombreux, les vestiges ont été méthodiquement détruits au cours de la période moderne et contemporaine. Dorénavant, seuls ce témoin d'un amphithéâtre qui n'a RIEN a voir avec Gallien demeure dans la ville. Loin d'être modeste, cette ruine est magnifique et mérite largement la petite marche qui nous y conduit. Pour les plus curieux et observateurs, les rues adjacentes au sud présentent des petites traces de cette mégastructure. L'accès est assez facile, le point de vue bien aménagé et les panneaux explicatifs (côté extérieur de l'édifice) apportent de nombreuses informations intéressantes.
