Origin and history

The Gallo-Roman remains of Caudebec-lès-Elbeuf are located in the municipality of the same name, in Normandy. These remains, dated from the Gallo-Roman period, testify to the ancient occupation of this territory. Their precise location, although subject to an accuracy deemed "a priori satisfactory" (note 6/10), is associated with Galileo Street and its surroundings, as confirmed by their address recorded in the Merimée database.

The remains were protected by an inscription under the Historical Monuments by order of 25 March 1982. This measure specifically concerns Cadastral plots AH 225 to 228, highlighting their heritage importance. Although the available sources (Monumentum, internal data) do not detail their exact nature, their presence attests to a Roman past in this area of Seine-Maritime, a region historically marked by cultural and commercial exchanges during antiquity.

The Gallo-Roman period in Normandy corresponds to an era of gradual romanization of local populations, where infrastructures (ways, habitats, places of worship) played a key role in social and economic organization. The remains of Caudebec-lès-Elbeuf fit into this broader context, reflecting the material traces of an ancient occupation, without specific details of their function or history being specified in current sources.
