Historical background


DAUPHINÉ - ARCHBISHOPRIC OF VIENNE - ANONYMOUS

(11th century)

Vienne would have been the first bishopric of Gaul, around 160, occupied by Saint Crescent. The city obtained the title of primatiale over Lyon, which it readily recalls on the coins. Vienne was proclaimed metropolis of Gaul at the Council of Vienne in 892 and still minted in the 14th century.
