THE GALLO-ROMAN REMAINS OF CUSSY-LA-COLONNE
Go there and contact
The journey is worth a detour, if only for the surprise effect: after a few minutes, you will see, lost in nature, an antique column more than 10 m high! Dating from the third century of our era, it was undoubtedly built here to mark the entry of a Gallo-Roman domain. It was 8 m high and has undergone some changes: A bump came to grow it in the th century. Here's an important remnant with his pedestal to eight faces decorated by a character: Diane to the north, a nymph to the northwest, Hercules to the west, Prometheus to the southwest, Minerve to the south, Junon to the southeast, Ganymede to northeast, and finally Jupiter to the east. We need some imagination to recognize them!
