    Who doesn't know him, the Gallic chief Vercingetorix, who is on the second page of every Asterix booklet. It is almost a must to visit this historical place.

      The Vercingetorix Monument (1865) is a statuary monument dedicated to the Gaulish chieftain Vercingetorix, defeated by Julius Caesar in the Gallic Wars in the famous battle of Alesia. It is designated as a monument historique

        A few meters after the car park is the large and majestic statue of Vercingetorix, created by the sculptor Millet in 1865 at the request of Napoleon III to celebrate the end of the excavations on the site.

        On the base of the statue, erected in 1865, we can read: "United Gaul, forming a single nation animated by the same spirit, can defy the universe", a phrase inspired by a speech by Vercingetorix that Jules César reproduced in "The Gallic Wars".
