Alauna, Gallo-Roman archaeological site in Valognes, France
The archaeological site spans over 45 hectares on a plateau along the southern bank of the Merderet valley, southeast of Valognes.
Alauna reached its peak between 100 and 250 CE, featuring public baths, a theater, and a network of orthogonal streets intersecting at two main arteries.
The site contains remnants of a sanctuary with a Roman-style temple, surrounded by a peristyle and complemented by smaller religious structures.
The thermal baths, one of the remaining structures at the archaeological site, are open to visitors without admission fees.
Geo-radar investigations revealed residential districts and numerous construction remains, including a domus with rooms potentially arranged around a central courtyard.
