The "Old Town" of Lyon stands as one of France's oldest and most enchanting quarters. Its rich history and architecture exemplify the city's prominence in Europe during the Renaissance period. Designated as the first protected heritage site in France in 1964, this district consistently captivates both visitors and locals, as well as cultural professionals who continually rediscover its secrets.
