    It is a landmark of the ancient city and was built at the beginning of the 2nd century, most likely during the reign of the Roman Emperor Trajan. It was a simple construction. About 5,000 spectators were able to participate in violent games. It is still used today for various events: open-air cinema, cow fights, various performances.

      The amphitheater of Martigny was built at the beginning of the second century AD in the Roman city of Forum Claudii Vallensium, capital of the then Vallis Poenina in Germania superior, today's Martigny in the Swiss canton of Valais. The construction most likely dates from the reign of Emperor Trajan.

        It is in good condition as it is still in use. Access - at least the outer ring - is public.
