The Temple of Diana
Religious heritage - Temple
This Roman ruin known as the "Temple of Diana", is located inside the Town Hall. The inside of the temple and its collection of archaeological artefacts can be visited only as part of the "Balade dans Aix" guided tour.
This Antique sanctuary is one of three fully preserved temples in France. It remains unclear to whom this temple is dedicated; the name 'Diane' comes from the Middle Ages, when it was used to name Pagan monuments associated with the 'goddess of bathing', but it may have originally been a temple for Borvo, the Celtic god of thermal springs. The archaeological collection within the temple tells the story of the settlement ('vicus') during the Roman era, how it was organised and some of the families that lived there.
