It was built on the hill of Fourvière, which is located in the center of the Roman city. The theatre was built in two steps: around 15 BC, a theatre with a 90 m diameter was built next to the hill. At the beginning of the 2nd century, the final construction added a last place for the audience. The oldest Roman theater in France, Lyon’s Ancient Theatre of Fourvière was built under the orders of Augustus and expanded in Hadrian’s time. Completed in 17 B.C. with space for 10,000 people, today the Grand Theatre is part of the UNESCO World Heritage site of Lyon. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/2190/021419f4-aeb8-4482-bc88-b6da2fac1b65.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![View of the city of Lyon -2015](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/2190/f31e027a-b8b7-41ce-abf3-2b67f25c64ed.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![théatre romain](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/2190/6f2caab5-400f-40b2-a08c-66258956faaa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ## Visit Fourvière Things to do Hotels Where to stay [Lyon travel guide](https://expedia.co.uk/Lyon.dx6180797) --- ### Popular places to visit ![Notre Dame Basilica featuring a church or cathedral, heritage architecture and religious aspects](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/501612/099fc3f8-6fe4-40fa-8eb4-b9be8973af7b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière 4.5/5(80 reviews) Lyon’s crowning glory, this monumental church stands atop Fourvière hill and provides fabulous panoramas of the city.
