CASTELLUM DIVISORIUM
Unique monument in the world in Nîmes which symbolizes the luxury of the Roman installations in terms of water supply.
It symbolizes the luxury of Roman water supply facilities. Built in Roman times and uncovered in 1844, it was the arrival point of the aqueduct that carried water from the Eure fountain (Uzès) via the Pont du Gard to end its course in this circular reception basin (5.50 m in diameter), carved in the rock. This is a unique monument in the world, embedded between the fortifications of the Vauban fort and the rue de la Lampèze. Thanks to Roman hydraulic engineering, water was distributed to the various vital points of the city.
