Jardin archéologique de Cybèle

The Jardin archéologique de Cybèle is an outdoor site displaying ruins of a Roman forum in Vienne. The grounds feature remains of arcades, walls, and building foundations dating back to antiquity.

The forum was built in the first century as an administrative center for the Gallo-Roman city. It served as a key location for local governance and public affairs.

The forum served as the heart of public life in the Roman city, where commerce and civic gatherings took place. The standing structures show how Romans organized space for community interaction.

The garden is freely accessible year-round with no admission fee. Visitors can explore the grounds independently or participate in guided tours offered regularly.

A massive stone wall featuring regular indentations and external cornices belonged to a large building at the forum entrance. This distinctive construction gives insight into the scale and building methods of Roman structures.
