Origin and history
The Gallo-Roman village of Grozon is an archaeological site located in the commune of Grozon, in the department of Jura (39), in the region Bourgogne-Franche-Comté. This monument is characterized by the partial presence of a vicus (Romanbourg), as well as by three churches: Saint-Michel, Saint-Martin and Saint-Maurice. These elements bear witness to an ancient occupation and religious continuity throughout the centuries.
The site was partially protected by a decree of 22 August 1988, covering specific parcels including vicus remains and churches. The location of the site, although documented (7 Chemin Saunier, 39800 Grozon), is considered to have satisfactory a priori accuracy (note 6/10). No additional information on excavations, artifacts or specific uses of the village is mentioned in the available sources.
The data comes mainly from the Monumentum database and internal references related to the Merimée database. The Insee code of the commune (39263) confirms its connection to the Jura and the former Franche-Comté region, which is now integrated into Burgundy-Franche-Comté. No mention is made of the current accessibility of the site (visits, services) or any tourist facilities.
