Overview
I’m Quentin, your local guide to Lyon’s secrets and stories. Join me as we explore the places that shaped Lyon’s soul and its most beautiful spots.
Starting in Croix-Rousse and winding down to the city center (Presque-île), you’ll retrace the history and essence of Lyon.
What Will You Discover?
- Le mur des Canuts: Discover Europe's biggest mural.
- Market of Croix-Rousse: Walk through the farmers' market.
- Fall of Lugdunum: Once a key city of the Roman Empire, learn about its dramatic decline after the battle of Lugdunum.
- Learn about the invention of the first automatic loom!
- Silk workers once used Secret Pathways to transport fabrics to the city.
- Did you know the Bartholdi Fountain was meant to face the city hall? I’m not even talking about the one in Lyon.
Join us, and you can tell your friends you have visited Lyon!
