abstract in English:	The purpose of this article is to present the examples of Celtic magical texts in a cultural perspective and to show what they were intended for or what they reflect. Among them are lead tablets from Chamalières, Larzac and Lezoux in France, also from Bath in England, the texts from The Book of Invasions, as well as from The Colloquy of the two Sages, but also the famous calendar of Coligny, of which bronze elements were found in the French vineyard of Coliny. The last one is a special case and can be considered as a magical text under some conditions.
