More information on Tupiniers du Vieux-Lyon

What is hidden behind this somewhat cryptic name? The Tupiniers, in fact, continue to practice one of the oldest traditions known to man: pottery. But this is a pottery market with a difference: it's the biggest of its kind in Europe and welcomes only the best craftsmen, from the most traditional to the most innovative. Discover this under-appreciated art form, as well as the beautiful St Jean area, at this annual September event. Admission is free.
