The amphitheatre on display

In June 1996, Roman walls were uncovered by a mechanical excavator on rue de la Porcelaine in Nyon. The curve of the wall leaves no doubt as to the nature of the building unearthed: it is the Noviodunum amphitheatre. Twenty-eight years later, the Roman Museum of Nyon is revisiting the photographs taken during the excavation of the monument by Archeodunum Investigations Archéologiques SA. Several displays in the town of Nyon showcase these images, which highlight the work of the archaeologists.

Guided tours retracing the discovery of the amphitheatre are scheduled for January 5 and 19, 2025 at 3pm. Duration 1h. All audiences. Visits free of charge and without registration.

Exhibition L’Amphithéâtre s’affichefrom November 10, 2024 to January 21, 2025.
