Origin and history

The Cybèle Archaeological Garden, located in Vienna (Isère), brings together Gallo-Roman and medieval remains organized into three main ensembles: the arcades of a portico bordering the forum, a large-scale wall attesting to a quadrangular public hall (perhaps for the municipal assembly), and a residential area with houses and terraces. These structures date from the beginning of the first century, with medieval reuses as a bulwark for the strong house of the Canals.

The site includes a 48x38-metre building, including the north limestone wall – surmounted by a cornice – and hemicycle stands suggest a theatre dedicated to the mysteries of Cybelus or a municipal auditorium. This wall was integrated into the medieval enclosure of Vienna. Prior to its development, the site housed the former Vienna Hospital, which was destroyed during the transfer to the Mount Solomon Hospital.

Ranked and registered in the Historical Monuments between 2012 and 2013 (parcelles AZ52 and AZ61), the site is today communal and associative property. His study is based on historical sources such as the works of André Pelletier (1982) or the plans of Étienne Rey (1820-1831), which document his evolution from antiquity to the Middle Ages.
