Introdução
Comércio próspero, escambo florescente, cerca de 20.000 habitantes, mansões e templos grandiosos, protegidos por uma muralha de cinco quilômetros de extensão, com quase sete metros de altura e mais de 70 torres: esta era Aventicum, há mais de 2.000 anos.
Aventicum, which is today called Avenches, was the capital of the Helvetians and of the Roman colony. At that time still located on Lake Murten, it became an economic, spiritual and cultural center thanks to its good traffic links and trade routes.
What remains today of the impressively large buildings, are the eastern gates and a wall tower, the forum's thermal baths, the amphitheater with a capacity of up to 16,000 persons, temple ruins as well as the Cigognier sanctuary. The museum displays important finds: the copy of the 33-centimeter-tall golden bust of Emperor Marc Aurel, mosaics, stone inscriptions and numerous artifacts of the Romans' daily life.
