Un lieu rempli d’histoire en plein coeur de Lugdunum ! A voir et à revoir dès que l’on a l’occasion.

Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area but it is all currently shut, with locked fences all around, do you can't go in. View from the top is better than the view from the bottom. Information boards around the outside give you a little detail about the place, but we found out more about it in the Roman museum later in the day.
