The amphitheatre (1st century) was the only one of Toulouse’s monuments of which considerable vestiges remained. The site is located some 4 km north-west of the town centre, on the left bank of the Garonne River, in the suburb of Purpan
« Amphitheatri quod ibi olim fuisse dicitur, pauca supersunt vestigia. »
