Comment
The ancient theater of Lugdunum is one of Lyon's main Roman monuments. It backs onto the Fourvière hill, below its summit, placing it close to the center of the Roman colony. Built at the beginning of the Empire, perhaps under Augustus, it was enlarged at the end of the 1st or beginning of the 2nd century, and can now accommodate up to 10,000 spectators. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Théâtre_antique_de_LyonLyon's coat of arms
