More information on Mur des Lyonnais
In terms of gastronomy, Lyon is well-known for its hot Sausage and Quenelles and everyone knows that the Guignol puppet theater originated here. Now Lyon has another claim to fame - its trompe lil painted walls. If you liked the reproduction of the "Cour des Loges" near place Fousseret and the frescoes in the "cité Tony Garnier" (see Quartier des Etats Unis), then you will appreciate this mural, which represents local culture. On the corner of quai Saint Vincent and rue de la Martinière, portraits of the major players in the history of Lyon have been painted on balconies. You might recognise some, such as the Emperor Claude, Laurent Mourguet, creator of Guignol puppets, Bertrand Tavernier the film-maker or abbé Pierre. Several streets away from the "mur des Lyonnais", the painted wall of the city library "biliothèque de la cité" in rue de la Platière sh ows the town's literary achievements in a neighbourhood where bookshops abound. This is just opposite quai de la Pecherie where people come every weekend to browse through old books. On this wall, Rabelais, Elsa Triolet, Tardi and other local heroes are painted into a virtual décor that illustrates the different types of writing mediums.
