Overview of your Lyon tour:

This 3 hour tour will tell you the story of Lyon during WWII. Lyon is the capital of the Resistance and its population is proud of it. Why was Lyon so important ? What made Lyon so special ? This tour answers these very important questions. This particular period has always interested me personally as my hometown is the capital of the Resistance. It led me to work for the Museum of the Resistance and Deportation as a licensed guide. I have been able to study this topic with historians and archivists. You will see the places where the Resistants printed their clandestine newspapers, where Jews lived their faith and where many were arrested, where the Resistants hid while organizing their networks and where many plaques celebrate the memory of those who died for their country. You will also see the places where the Gestapo and the Nazis tortured their victims and where they organized the repression. Come on this tour with a proud son of Lyon. If you are passionate about WWII, this is a tour made for you !
