Vestiges archéologiques du Clos de la Lombarde

The excavations at Clos de la Lombarde reveal a Roman residential district with houses, streets, workshops, and public thermal baths.

Initial discoveries occurred in 1910 with two sarcophagi, but systematic excavations began in 1973 during the construction of an administrative building.

The wall paintings and mosaics found in the Roman domus demonstrate the decorative techniques used in the ancient architecture of Narbo Martius.

The site offers guided tours in multiple languages at 3 euros, with discounts available for groups and children aged 12 to 18.

A 27.5-meter-long early Christian basilica built in the fourth century displays architecture influenced by northern Syrian buildings.
