This immersive historical program consists of a full day of activities designed to transport visitors back to the life of the Aedui tribe. Historically, Bibracte was the capital of the Aedui people and the site where Vercingetorix was proclaimed leader of the Gaulish coalition. It reinforces a foundational regional identity that connects modern Burgundy to its ancient Celtic and Gallo-Roman roots. Visitors enjoy guided tours of the ramparts, participate in archaeological workshops, and taste an authentic Gaulish meal at the restaurant. The program has a profound social impact by offering a high-quality pedagogical experience that unites families and international visitors. For archaeologists, these days serve as a platform for sharing the latest findings from the ongoing excavations on Mount Beuvray. This initiative preserves the legacy of the Gaulish civilization by making its complex social history accessible to everyone.
