"Les arènes de Nîmes, d’époque romaine, ont été reproduites sous forme de maquette d’un mètre de diamètre, avec une vue en coupe détaillant le plan des gradins. L’objectif était de faire comprendre l’organisation complexe du bâtiment et notamment son système de double circulation qui permettait aux spectateurs de rejoindre l’une des quatre zones autonomes des gradins. Vingt-quatre mille personnes pouvaient assister aux spectacles donnés sur la piste ovale."
