Voie de Jules César, Roman road in Beauce la Romaine, France

The Voie de Jules César spans 100 kilometers between Chartres and Blois, following straight lines through the departments of Eure-et-Loir and Loir-et-Cher.

The road section in Beauce la Romaine received official recognition as a historic monument in 1978, preserving its ancient Roman engineering methods and construction.

This Roman thoroughfare appears in the cartulary of Saint-Laumer Abbey in Blois under the Latin name Blesencis calceatus callis, indicating its regional importance.

The road surface at Membrolles reveals aligned stones typical of ancient construction, while sections near Verdes maintain their original paving materials.

The road structure influenced local water flow by creating a dam effect on the Aigre River through its elevated stone and gravel construction method.
