Built during the reign of Augustus in the first century BC by veterans of Caesar's Second Legion, Orange's ancient theatre ranks among the world's best-preserved Roman theatres, matched only by Bosra in Syria. Its remarkable exterior wall still stands with its original elevation intact—103 meters long and 37 meters high.
