Theâtre Antique d'Orange Review

A marvel with guides at the height.
The experience of visiting virtual reality is amazing.

Awesome virtual tour .... nice little show for children ...

Magnificent ! And for once, multimedia tools really enrich the visit!

impressive! Definitely worth visiting. Has a nice audio tour.

Superb, to visit and also to listen to a concert of great music for its reverb.

Plan at least one hour of visit, the time to listen to the 13 points strategically placed on the stands and which tell the history of this theaters. Video projection allows all the same to know the essentials for those who would not want to stop at each point.

Nice experience.

Just magnificent... The guided tour is particularly good.

Well preserved theater, the audio tour is extensive and definitely recommended!

Incredibley interesting look back at history informative audioguide

Nice but a bit empty. Lots of stairs... Have audio guide at the entrance.

Entering this place makes you travel with your mind backwards in time, wonderful.

It was the first time that I went to orange and the ancient theater C is great ......
It's magical like place ....
I loved the various speakers, dressed in period costumes and telling us various stories of this moment in our history.
I really had a good time that I would not forget ....


For children, retired people and ourselves
Not wise should find 1 other place to tell the beautiful stories of antiquity
Otherwise there is risk of health for some people ....... TO REVIEW

magnificent and grandiose
great theatrical tour
pity that the city is not level ....

Amazing place. One of the most beautiful amphitheatres I have seen.

One of the best preserved and most impressive Roman theaters. And here two opposing opinions: they say that filling the stage with spotlights and scaffolding and offering performances of various types, including musicals, helps to maintain the monument. The other version is that all this varied paraphernalia contributes to the degradation of these millenary stones.

A gift Giovanni treated contemporary ... To forget the staging by cons excellent performers.

Really impressive place in comparison with other roman theaters.

Impressive place of spectacular show very welcome despite the crowd ..

The Roman Theater of Orange, built under the reign of Caesar Augustus in the 1st century, is one of the best-preserved Roman theaters in the world. It still preserves the scenic facade wall with its original elevation: 103 meters long by 37 meters high. Together with the Arc de Triomphe in the same town, the Theater was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 1981.

Unique. The only Roman theater in Europe to have preserved its monumental stage wall (103 m long, 37 m high)

the entrance fee ( 9.50) per adult is worth it, the ancient theater deserves to be seen.

Magic ! Extremely well preserved monument. The virtual visit is worth it (explanation of the construction of the theater). The audio guide allows you to get a precise idea of Roman life in the past.

Unique unique magic
Not to miss

It's hard to believe that this place has been here for 2,000 years! The preservation effort has been immense and the Ancient Theater of Orange is a true cultural treasure. Public access is quite good, so you can get close and really see how the walls and floors were constructed. The Romans were amazing builders and the acoustics are actually quite amazing. There was a choral rehearsal when we visited and we had no trouble ordering the voices clearly, even though we were standing very near the top.

A magnificent place dating from antiquity, undergoing renovation. It is fabulous to see what man was already capable of doing more than 2000 years ago.

Beautiful theater very impressive. With very beautiful step. The museum is not bad but a lot of painter's painting and very little antique thing.

Very nice visit.
The dramatized guided tour is excellent.

Too expensive for what it is (9.50e)
The site is completely distorted by electrical cables and materials of all kinds ...
Really disappointed with this visit

I recommend, besides seeing the museum place superb

Entrance to the Theater is overpriced, especially if you have teenagers. But very beautiful.

Endroit magnifique acoustique et vielle pierre juste wouah

Magnificent
Thursday nights is animated during the summer
Go for it !

Village chosen because of the many (cheap) overnight options. F1, Ibis, B&B, Campanile. Walked through the village to lower the McDonald's, it was Sunday so everything else was closed but still able to sniff some culture with a 12th century cathedral. And other old states. There are even a number of shopping streets with squares where you can find enough restaurants

Magnificent! Great audio guide, teenage kids listened attentively for >1 hour (!)

To see absolutely! Aknsi that the pafc sui overlooks the city

Take absolutely the audio guide and the glasses in 3D to immerse yourself in the story!

I've seen hundreds of times in video The Cure live at Orange and visiting the place was very emotional

What a chance to walk in this theater remnant of the Roman influence on this city. The audio guides deliver valuable and numerous comments. We did not try the virtual tour. Count two good hours for the free visit with audio guide. The museum (same tiquet) we were less convinced but it must be said that it was very hot.

Outdoor venue with architecture entirely of the time, ideal for shows of all kinds to a very diverse public.

Good visit. The only downside is that the virtual visit is a little too short (6 minutes) and suddenly we find the salted price (for a family of 4 provide 20 ).

A wonderful look back to the time of the Romans in the 1st century. With children worth the entrance in any case. For adults, maybe even a walk around it ...

Often they also do shows inside free or at 5 around

Beautiful theater, kept as original as possible and Dutch, informative audio guide available. At the top a nice view over the surroundings.

I wrote previously an opinion in which one must understand "vestiges" and not cloakroom, error due to the intuitive writing, :-)
I also specify that the theater was used for songs and performances while the arenas were intended for games and gladiator fights.

Very interesting!
Worth listening to the guid and visiting the upper rooms with video

Visit with the audioguide very interesting. Too bad the preparation of a show banned access to certain places.

Magnificent ! The visit includes a very well done audio guide. Also theatrical visits for children. I think there was also an escape game

This rating only concerns the staff!

You let people in at 4.40 p.m., even try an additional sale (!) Of the 3D demonstration scheduled for 5.30 p.m. - and then mercilessly put the guests in front of the door at 6 p.m. With the hint that the audio guide round could easily be "done" in 50 minutes ...

Cheek and absolute rip-off!

A UNESCO World Heritage Site deserves a more customer-friendly and well-trained staff!

A dip in the wonderful past, too bad the reconstructed concrete steps

Damage to pay full price while the theater is under restoration!
