Saintes is one of France's oldest cities, founded by the Romans as Mediolanum Santonum in the 1st century BC. The Arch of Germanicus (AD 18-19) is one of the best-preserved Roman monuments in western France. The Gallo-Roman amphitheatre held 15,000 spectators and now hosts summer concerts. The Abbaye aux Dames (1047) is a jewel of Romanesque Saintonge art, now home to the Cité musicale. The Saintes-Bordeaux taxi is used by cognac professionals, cultural tourists and travellers connecting at Bordeaux-Mérignac airport or Saint-Jean station.
