Diodurum, Archaeological site in Jouars-Pontchartrain, France.
The excavation site reveals extensive remains of a Gallo-Roman settlement with temples, sanctuaries, and an ancient theater at a strategic crossroads location.
First established in the 1st century BCE, Diodurum functioned as the primary administrative and commercial center in the Île-de-France region until the 6th century.
The name Diodurum originates from Gaulish words 'divo' meaning divine and 'duron' meaning gate, reflecting the linguistic heritage of ancient settlements.
Visitors can participate in archaeological workshops, guided tours, and pottery-making sessions led by professional archaeologists throughout the excavation areas.
The site transformed into a Cistercian farm called Ferme d'Ithe in the 12th century, preserving layers of both Roman and medieval history.
