Sarcophagus located on the forecourt of the

39;abbey. Called Sainte Tombe, it gives water that is constantly renewed. Tradition relates that

it housed for a time the relics of the patron saints of

39;abbey. A white marble sarcophagus, it is the only preserved vestige of the early Christian sanctuary installed on the site of the Roman baths (Les Bains d&

39; Arles). Above the sarcophagus is the funerary stone of Guillaume de Gausselme (early XNUMXth century). The Holy Tomb is visible during the visit
