Photo "L'aqueduc gallo-romain de Luynes. 47°23'51"N 0°34'07"E L'aqueduc est le seul vestige de l'antique cité de Malliacum. Alimenté par la source dite de La Pinnoire, l'édifice, dont il ne subsiste que 44 piles sur 90 au total, est construit sur un mur continu. La hauteur moyenne des piles est de 8,90 m de la base à la clef ; celles-ci sont en petit appareil sans chaînage de briques (opus incertum). L'intérieur est constitué par un blocage en béton, mortier et pierres ; dans les cintres sont disposées des briques plates et rougeâtres de 32 cm de long, 22 cm de large et 3 cm d'épaisseur. L'édifice aboutit au lieu-dit le Prieuré de Saint-Venant. Un mur subsiste à proximité, pouvant faire penser à des vestiges de thermes. La pente moyenne est de 1,64 m par km, la longueur de l'édifice étant de 1 825 m. (Michel laurencin, in Revue archéologique du Centre de la France.
