Gallo-Roman Museum of Lyon-Fourvière, Archaeological museum in Fourvière district, Lyon, France

The Gallo-Roman Museum features two large windows carved into Fourvière hill, displaying archaeological collections across multiple exhibition levels within concrete architecture.

The museum, inaugurated in 1975, preserves artifacts from Lugdunum, including the Claudius Tablet containing the emperor's speech about Gallic citizenship rights.

The permanent collection presents mosaics, sculptures, jewelry, and the Coligny calendar, representing daily life in the capital of Roman Gaul.

Located at 17 rue Cléberg, the museum opens Tuesday through Friday from 11:00 to 18:00, with weekend hours starting at 10:00.

The building integrates into the hillside next to ancient Roman theaters, creating an architectural connection between modern construction and archaeological remains.
