Lonely Planet review

The Roman amphitheatre called Lutetia Arena, dating from the 2nd century, could once seat around 10,000 people for gladiatorial combats and other events. Discovered in 1869 by accident while Rue Monge was under construction and heavily rebuilt in 1917, it is now used by neighbourhood youths playing boules and football.
