What is inside the guide
Then and now
Drag the handle: a public domain engraving (Clérisseau, the Becquet brothers, BnF collections) next to today’s photo. The Arena, the Maison Carrée, the Gate of Augustus, the Temple of Diana.
The Roman timeline
From the Volcae Arecomici and the spring of the god Nemausus to the Arena: the Via Domitia, the crocodile coin, the walls of Augustus, the aqueduct and the Pont du Gard.
The storyteller
Six tales told by a storyteller’s voice: the sacred spring, the road and the gate, the crocodile and the palm tree, the temple of the princes, the journey of the water, from arena to village.
Arena challenges
One quiz per ancient monument, one laurel crown per win.
Eleven walking routes
From the Ancient Nemausus walk, from the amphitheatre to the sacred spring, to strolls through the Écusson and the gardens: stops on the map, distance and walking time, narration on arrival.
