Ancient Theatre of Fourvière
The Roman theatre is a Roman ancient structure in Lyon, France. It was built on the hill of Fourvière, which is located in the center of the Roman city.
Chronology
The theatre was built in two steps: around 15 BC, a theatre with a 90 m diameter was built next to the hill. At the beginning of the 2nd century, the final construction added a last place for the audience. The diameter is 108 m, and there were seats for 10,000 people.
Nowadays, the theatre is primarily a tourist site, but it is still used as a cultural venue. Each year, the Nuits de Fourvière festival takes place in the theatre.
