The circus



Built at the end of the first century AD, the Circus completed the urban development programme for the official Provincial Representation area of the Town. Typologically, it meets the usual criteria for this type of structure used for chariot races (an elongated rectangular plan, in this case 325 x 110/115 metres, with long straight sides and short curved ends). Of the structural elements, a large number of the vaults have been preserved and, in a few places, the tiers of seating they supported. We can also see the remains of the outer facade, the podium and the monumental entrance gates.
