The site on which Geneva now stands was the chief settlement of the Allobroges, a central European tribe who were annexed to Rome 121 BC; Julius Caesar built an entrenched camp here.

Under the Protestant theologian John Calvin, it became a center of the Reformation 1536–64; the Academy, which he founded 1559, became a university 1892.
