After Rome, Arles is home to the largest number of Roman remains. Of the 8 monuments in Arles listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites, the Roman amphitheatre is undoubtedly the most emblematic.

Built in 90 AD, the Roman Amphitheatre is a remarkable sight. The games could accommodate up to 21,000 spectators. With its circular inner and outer galleries, horizontal passages and alternating staircases, the construction is ingenious. The building is also surprisingly large, over 130m long. It is the city's most visited monument.

To make the most of your visit, we recommend purchasing a pass (available from our online ticketing service), which will enable you to visit the city's various museums and monuments more economically. Guided tours, gladiator fights and Roman animations take place during every school vacation. Cultural, sporting and bullfighting events are also held from Easter to the end of September.

Please note that the amphitheatre is not easily accessible to people with reduced mobility. It is also subject to exceptional closures during festivals and events.
