When walking through the city of Autun, it is definitely worth visiting this old theatre.

The fact that they are attributed to the Middle Neolithic does not in any way rule out a presence that could go back to the Bronze Age. With a length of 7.30 m and a weight of around 30 tons, the large menhir is the most impressive in the whole of eastern France.

A set of seven menhirs that are about 5,000 years old and were erected by the Neolithic civilization. Later, the Gauls dedicated this place to Epogne, the goddess of horsemen. The highest is 7.35 meters.

The Roman Theatre of Autun, built around 70 AD, is one of the largest ancient theatres in Roman Gaul. It could accommodate around 15,000 to 20,000 spectators. Located in the city of Autun, formerly called Augustodunum under the Roman Empire, this monument bears witness to the grandeur of the city at that time. The theatre is distinguished by its vast cavea (the space reserved for spectators), which extends over a natural hill, thus providing excellent acoustics. It is oriented so that spectators have a breathtaking view of the surrounding landscape. The shows given there were varied: theatrical performances, public speeches, and probably gladiatorial shows or religious ceremonies. Today, it remains an important archaeological site. Every summer, cultural events are organized there, such as concerts or historical reenactments, in order to revive the spirit of Antiquity.

There is a very good restaurant on the bridge with a view of the canal. Newly built winter garden. Highly recommended

A must in Autun, a gigantic and imposing monument. This pyramid, which overlooks the city of Autun, was probably built in the 1st century AD. Listed as a Historic Monument since 1840. The pyramid stood in one of the great necropolises of the Roman city of Augustodunum, the ancient Autun: the cemeteries of all Roman cities were always located outside the walls. Couhard's pyramid, whose interpretation has given rise to many controversies, was therefore most likely a funerary monument: a tomb covering the remains of a deceased person. In 1960, at the base of the monument, there is a lead “magic tablet” (15.8 × 5.8 cm) from the 2nd century bearing inscriptions in Latin and Greek, as well as a large cross. This is now in the Rolin Museum in Autun.
