Origin and history

The Gallo-Roman Museum Les Potiers de Portout is an archaeological monument located in the municipality of Chanaz. This site highlights remains and objects related to the Gallo-Roman period, although the precise dating of its creation or the collections exhibited is not explicitly mentioned in the available sources. Gallo-Roman museums, like the one in Portout, play a key role in preserving and valuing the local ancient heritage.

In regions such as the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, these places allow us to understand the artisanal, commercial and daily activities of the people during ancient times. For example, potters were essential players in the local economy, producing ceramics for domestic and funeral purposes.
