7 Museums in Vieux Lyon - Quarantaine That You Shouldn't Miss

April 9, 2022 Milan Banda

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Lyon has 2,000 years of history imprinted on its streets (yes, the cobblestone kind). Explore this history in Vieux Lyon (one of Europe's most extensive Renaissance neighborhoods) and Lyon's two Roman amphitheatres, which still stage rock concerts today. It's no wonder Lyon is a popular area for travelers, with its dynamic university, first-class shopping, antique markets, vibrant theatre and music festivals, and a range of interesting museums, such as the International Puppet Museum and the Museum of Miniatures and Film Sets. (When we say "interesting," we mean it.)

Musee des Automates de Lyon

Reviewed By ynop

A small museum showcasing various scenes composed of hand made puppets which move, driven by small electric engines. A gray experience, and we loved the fact that they explain to all visitors who start the visit how these puppets are made and then for the kids give a little quizz with things they must find. A great way to get the kids interested and focussed.
