THE PALAIS GALIEN.
Located just outside the city centre, the Palais Galien constitutes the most ancient Gallo-Roman vestige in Bordeaux.
However, one no longer hears roaring lions or the shouts of victorious gladiators... The ruins of this amphitheatre nevertheless evoke Burdigala (Bordeaux's Roman name) at its peak. A monumental gateway remains to this day, as well as several arches and wall remnants incorporated into surrounding houses – and even their basements!
In times past, some 20,000 spectators (or twice the town's population) watched the games on wooden benches.
