Reissue of an essential guide Marked by its thousand-year history, the city of Nyon offers visitors a wide cultural range. This guide allows you to discover the remains of the Roman city - Colonia Iulia Equestris - buried beneath the present-day city and offers a rich overview of the objects preserved at the Nyon Roman Museum, housed in the foundations of the 1st century AD basilica. This work is an updated and expanded version of the first edition of the guide published in 2003. Since that date, the museum's layout has been redesigned and its collections have incorporated recent finds made on the site. Archaeological investigations carried out in recent years, mainly on the outskirts of the monumental center, have changed our perception of the Roman city, giving it a scale that was barely perceptible previously.
