This inner courtyard features a gallery designed by local architect Philibert Delorme in the sixteenth century. It is a rare example of Italian Renaissance architecture in Lyon! Built in 1536 for Antoine Bullioud, Controller-General of Finances, this gallery was strongly influenced by Italian Renaissance art. It was the work of young architect Philibert Delorme, following his return from an apprenticeship in Italy. The owner wanted a gallery linking up the two buildings, while leaving the fountain below intact. The architect therefore came up with a system of elevation on squinches, which are masterpieces of stone carving. The classical capitals and Roman-style friezes are of the Italian Renaissance style. It is one of the only remaining examples of the work of Philibert Delorme, who went on to become the architect of King Henry II of France.

Built from 1902 to 1904, the “Palais des Expositions" features Lyon’s coat of arms and motto: “avant, avant Lion le melhor”. It has a set of huge windows and 2 sets of sculptures showing a horse, an angel, a lion’s head and musical instruments.

Fourvière Basilica is an iconic building that overlooks the whole of Lyon. A "Marian fortress" on the outside, the inside is richly decorated with mosaics, stained-glass windows and marble. The panoramic view from the esplanade is breathtaking. An exceptional visit of the roofs is included in the Lyon City Card. The name 'Fourvière' is said to be derived from the Latin words 'Forum Vetus' (old forum), as Fourvière Hill was chosen by the Romans to found the town of Lyon in 43 BC. Construction work for the cathedral began in 1872 and it was inaugurated in 1896. However, the interior decoration works were not finished until after the Second World War. As local architect Pierre Bossan (1814-1888) passed away before the end of the construction works, his disciple, Louis Sainte-Marie-Perrin (1835-1917) supervised the end of the works. This mysterious building is devoted to the Virgin Mary and the interior is richly decorated, in particular a series of 6 mosaics that retrace her history in France and Christianity. The style of the crypt, which is devoted to Saint Joseph, is more sober than the church above. It is home to a statue of "Saint Joseph and Child" by sculptor Joseph-Hugues Fabisch and stained-glass windows by Lucien Bégule that feature symbols of the Holy Communion. The basilica measures 86 metres in length and 35 metres in width. At the summit of its towers, it measures 48 metres in height. Its organ was built in 1896 by Michel Merklin and was restored in 1996. A 3.05-metre bronze statue sculpted by Elisabeth Cibot represents Jean-Paul II blessing the town of Lyon during his visit in October of 1986. It was erected on the square in front of the basilica on the 4th of October, 2011.

With its 30 exhibition rooms, the Lyon history museum invites you to discover the key stages in the city's history. Drawing on the 80,000 items in its collection, for anyone keen to discover Lyon, this is a place to begin your exploration of the city. Located in the heart of Vieux-Lyon, the Gadagne ensemble is a magnificent Renaissance structure that houses two major museums: the museum of the history of Lyon and the museum of puppets of the world. Thanks to an approach that presents the overall picture, from the capital of the Gauls to the 21st century, the museum of the history of Lyon is a resource that encompasses the city and all its facets. The visit starts with the "musée de l'oeuvre" that evokes the history of the setting: the Gadagne buildings, the largest Renaissance ensemble. The visitor then travels back through Lyon's history: Antiquity, Middle Ages, Renaissance, 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. A presentation of the landmarks in Lyon's territorial and urban development enable an understanding of changes and specific features in the city's economic, social, religious and cultural landscape. Free audioguides and multimedia devices complement the visit and explain different aspects of the collections presented. The museum offers numerous activities: themed tours, shows, workshops for children and adults, walks through the city, etc. Services: educational workshops, small theatre, terrace gardens, Gadagne café. And soon, a research centre will be available by appointment.

The place in which Lugdunum was founded in 43 BC by Munatius Plancus includes the Grand Théâtre (tragedies and comedies), the Odéon (music, reading), the foundations of a temple to Cybele and the remains of a hand-crafting area. Classified as a "Historical Monument" in 1905, this exceptional site gathers the remains of the Grand Theater and the Odéon, which can be visited all year round and free of charge. Once a place of entertainment and culture, they were transformed into quarries at the end of Antiquity. Many stones were moved to build Lyon below. It was not until the 20th century that theaters were rehabilitated and partially rebuilt. The Great Theatre, the oldest in France, built by Augustus in 15 BC and divided into 3 sections: the "cavea" (a vast shell with 25 stands leading to the pit) built on a gallery. In bad weather, a "velum" (awning) was stretched over the "cavea", tied to the backstage wall. The "cavea" had several "vomitorias" (doors leading to the stands). The "balteus" was the wall separating the Plebs from the Patricians. Finally, the semi-circular pit was the most ornate part with multi-coloured geometric patterns. This was where the choir, dancers and actors performed. It is 27 m in diameter. In the theatre's stands, blocks of white limestone give us an idea of what the monument originally looked like. The stage supported by a wall, the "pulpitum", has been fitted with floorboards to allow use of the theatre today. It is decorated with a few columns and the statue of a woman. Each column was there to commemorate an emperor, with his ashes stored in the base. The theatre was dedicated to tragedies and comedies. It could hold 4,700 people. It was extended under Hadrian's rule to 10,700 seats in 120 AD. The Odeon, the smaller theatre (3,000 seats) was for political or philosophical orators, music, poets and an intellectual elite. Odeons had a small seating capacity. The one in Lugdunum could only seat 2,500 people. It was built under Antoninus, Hadrian's successor in the mid-second century AD. The Odeon stood to the west against a 6 m thick wall, supporting the roof of the "cavea", 73 m in diameter, consisting of stands leading to a pit paved with geometric designs: diamonds, squares, rectangles, circles highlighted by strips. White, pink or beige marbles, blue or grey granite, green or red porphyry were brought from Italy, Greece or Egypt. Today, the two buildings host concerts, festivals, guided tours and other events. Every summer, the multidisciplinary festival Les Nuits de Fourvière takes place in the antic theatres.

In this small museum, Guignol is king! You will discover the history of Guignol, by whom it was invented, when and why, through a wide collection of puppets and other unique items bearing the image of small wooden Lyon. Spread over two floors, the Petit Musée de Guignol takes you on a journey of discovery through several animated scenes. An audio guide and Guignol himself tell the story of this puppet that has traveled the world. Created around 1808 by Laurent Mourguet, Guignol quickly became a favorite with the people of Lyon, thanks to his satirical commentary on daily life at the time and a cast of colorful characters, like his best friend Gnafron, who shares his adventures and his taste for good things! Visit duration: 30 minutes.

A gem of fifteenth-century architecture in Vieux-Lyon (Old Lyon), the Maison du Chamarier boasts a remarkable courtyard that features elements of both the Gothic and Renaissance styles. At the time, the house was located in the cloister of Saint-Jean, by the north entrance. It stood against a wall, which was later demolished and where Rue de la Bombarde now lies. The oldest parts of the house date back to the thirteenth century. From 1496 to 1516, major works were carried out for the canon and count François d'Estaing. The 'Chamarier' was in charge of security, justice and highways. He commanded twelve watchmen. He managed the cloister and held the keys of the six gates of the town’s fortifications. He also collected taxes during fairs. The magnificence of the house, facade and interiors reflects the owner's high social standing. This house is an example of the transition between the Flamboyant Gothic and Renaissance styles. In the inner courtyard, a gallery with Italianate frescoes and a spiral stairway sculpted with Gothic patterns can be admired. The fountain and Renaissance well are attributed to local architect Philibert Delorme. Listed as a historical monument on the 15th of September 1943, it has remained unoccupied since 1987.
