Naintré - Vieux Poitiers

The ruins of the semicircular theatre of "Vetus Pictavis" (aka "Vieux Poitiers"), a Gallo-Roman city, partly excavated by archaeologists. It was founded near the confluence of the rivers Clain and Vienne within the 1. century. The theater had a seating capacity of 10.000. The chemin ("Via Turonensis") is clearly marked - and turns left here.
