Alesia
Alesia is the archaeological remains of a Gallic oppidum and later a Gallo‑Roman town on the Mont‑Auxois plateau near Alise‑Sainte‑Reine in Burgundy, France. It is best known as the site of the decisive 52 BC battle between Vercingetorix and Julius Caesar; archaeological remains visible today include Roman-period foundations for a forum, temples and a theatre, plus vestiges of ramparts and the surrounding siege lines.

As it stood in AD 50
What Alesia looked like in its prime.
A broad, grassy plateau set above surrounding fields, defined by steep escarpments and low stone revetments. On the plateau are rectilinear stone foundations and paved areas of a Roman town: a semicircular theatre with tiered stone seating, rectangular foundation footprints of temples and a forum, and linear traces of walls and embankments. The site is punctuated by scattered masonry, grass-covered earthworks and a modern visitor complex at the plateau edge.
