    Caesar's Camp is an earthen mound that is over 2000 years old. The site dates back a few centuries before the Roman period. The more appropriate name for this historic site is “City of Limes”. It is in fact a “Gallic oppidum” or more certainly Gallo-Belgian which dates from well before Julius Caesar!
    This mound is a very long fortification which protected an area of more than 50 hectares. This earthen rampart is 3600 meters long. It still measures 9 to 12 meters high today depending on the location. The mound is framed by an exterior and interior ditch, which made it almost impassable. You are thus progressing on a historic path, an “antique route” which dates from Antiquity.
