Did you know ?

In 43 BC, the Roman governor Lucius Munatius Plancus founded a colony on the current hill of Fourvière, then called Lugdunum, that is to say "the hill of light", because it is directed towards the Is and refers to Lug, Celtic deity, personification of the astral light and the rising sun. General Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa will choose Lugdunum as the central point of the road network that he organizes in Gaul, which allows the city to acquire a certain importance which will reach its peak when Augustus, the first Roman emperor, will choose, in the year 12 BC, to organize the imperial cult there by having his son-in-law Nero Claudius Drusus Germanicus erect the federal sanctuary of the Three Gauls where all the Gallic tribes came to show their loyalty to the emperor and to Rome , thus consecrating the city as "Capital of the Gauls".
