Opening “La Duchesse”

Inauguration of “La Duchesse”, La Duchère district, Lyon 9th district

On the evening of Monday May 22, elected officials, project sponsors and us, the occupants, had the pleasure of showing visitors around our new premises.

It was a time for encounters orchestrated by Ma Friche Urbaine, the company behind the project and manager of the premises.

An evening open to all, organized around a buffet, a crêpe stand and cultural activities for children, and a film screening followed by a debate.

A time to reminisce about this place and discuss future changes…

Here’s a look back at the evening’s inauguration :
