The Murals in the City Centre

In Lyon, “Trompe l’œil” murals and wall-sized frescoes are essential reference points in the urban landscape!

They tell the story of Lyon in different ways: here, through its great men from ancient times to the present day, here, in the form of a giant library, or here, like a film decor presenting on of Old Lyon’s really finest hotels: la Cour des Loges…

A novel, varied trip through an enormous open-air gallery.

OR (in 3 hours):

From the Croix Rousse plateau, where a number of magnificent murals like the “Mur des Canuts”, or the Silk-Workers Wall, rise up to the sky, down to the Presqu’île, from “traboule” to mural, a different way of conjuring up the history of Lyon and two famous neighbourhoods.
