“The slopes of Croix-Rousse in Lyon are known for their traboules. These passageways between the buildings preserve the history of the silk industry in the 19th century. New guided tours suggest to discover these places differently, at the time when Lyon was capital of the Resistance.
These tours, which last one hour thirty, focus on the role of traboules during the German occupation in Lyon. They served in particular to clandestine printes. The visits are full of anecdotes. They are organized once a month with the Maison des Canuts. »
