Climbing the majestic stairs under a glass roof, you will discover a symbol of Lyon's spirit of resistance.

Seemingly an ordinary courtyard, in reality, it's a gateway to another era and a symbol of Lyon's spirit of resistance. Climb the majestic, wide stairs that lead through the heart of former weaving workshops to discover one of the most iconic traboules. Light filtering through the glass roof onto the inner facade creates a magical play of shadows, inviting a moment of reflection on the city's history. It's not just a passage; it's a journey through time, telling the story of the lives and struggles of the old silk weavers.
