Oppidum of Corent, Archaeological site in Corent, France.
The Oppidum of Corent extends across 50 hectares on a volcanic plateau, featuring ancient Celtic settlements with residential areas and craft workshops.
The fortified settlement reached its peak during the second century BCE as a center of Arverni people before declining after the Gallic Wars.
The excavated sanctuary contains multiple religious structures and ceremonial objects, demonstrating the spiritual practices of pre-Roman Celtic communities.
Visitors can access the archaeological site every day without entrance fees and receive information through downloadable guides and on-site resources.
The 2011 discovery of a Gallo-Roman theater with wooden predecessor structures reveals the architectural evolution from Celtic to Roman periods.
