Temple de Vasso Galate, Roman temple ruins in Clermont-Ferrand, France
The northern wall section of the Temple de Vasso Galate stands between a residential building and a parking lot in central Clermont-Ferrand.
The temple dates back to the 2nd century CE when it served as a religious center in Augustonemetum, the Roman capital of the Arverni people.
Gregory of Tours documented the temple in his writings, providing evidence of its religious significance during the Gallo-Roman period in central France.
The archaeological remains are accessible from Rue Rameau on the west side and Rue Bonnabaud on the east side of the current urban structure.
The temple was constructed on former marshland at an elevation of 385.20 meters, where the Tiretaine River once flowed through the area.
