The Arènes de Lutèce is an ancient Roman amphitheater located in the 5th arrondissement of Paris, France. Built in the 1st century AD, it once served as a venue for gladiatorial combats and other public spectacles during the Roman era when Paris was known as Lutetia. The amphitheater could accommodate up to 15,000 spectators and featured a large arena surrounded by stepped seating. Rediscovered in the 19th century and subsequently restored, the site now serves as a public park where visitors can explore the remnants of the ancient structure, including its stage and seating areas.
