Sailing farther south, we arrive at the Roman town of Vienne. This was a large surburban settlement during the age of Julius Caesar & later the capital of Burgundy.
The Temple of Augustus & Livia
Originally erected by Emperor Claudius, this building has a colorful history having been repurposed & rebuilt several times over the centuries. It was even converted into a church in the 5th century & secularized during the French Revolution. Your guide has all the details.
