Présentes sur tout le territoire, symboles de l’imprégnation du christianisme dans la vie rurale, les croix se suivent, mais ne se ressemblent pas. Certaines sont de bois, quand d’autres sont de fer ou de pierre. Certaines se dressent sur les sommets quand d’autres sont cantonnées dans la vallée. Quant à la mission qui leur est confiée, ce peut être la matérialisation de points de passage comme les croisées de chemins, le repérage de lieux stratégiques ou symboliques, ou encore la signalisation d’un lieu de procession ou de bénédiction. Je suis de ces dernières. De celles qui furent plantées pour rappeler la montée en alpage au début de l’été et la bénédiction des terres, des maisons et des troupeaux par le curé du village.

Standing atop Fourvière Hill, this basilica, constructed in the late 19th century, has an ornate interior to contrast its grave exterior.

This is a very beautiful church and the mosaics and ceiling are amazing and the view over Lyon is amazing as well. You can either take the tram or walk up. Its very easy to reach from old town

A 12th-century Gothic cathedral with impressive stained-glass windows.

I love old churches. The stained glass , astronomical clock, and the statue of Christ by the altar are all worthy of a stop on your meandering walk through Lyon.

9. Theatre Romain (Antique)
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 338 reviews
Roman theater which seats 13,000.
Reviewed By Michael_SF6310RH - Swansea, United Kingdom
We had a greatly enjoyable cruise on the river Rhone with Riviera Travel (30th May - 6th June 2019). We had to climb a steep hill to the Roman amphitheatre. The view was panoramic from the top but it was quite a climb to the highest seats and it was even more difficult to climb back down. My wife had to cling to the fencing and jump down from seat to seat as the steps were so steep. The theatre was built in the first century AD and was one of the largest in the ancient Roman world with a capacity of 11,000 spectators – remarkable.
